Canna Cromata
« on: December 11, 2009, 03:11:52 AM »
Does anyone here know a thing or two about shotguns called Canna Cromata?  They were italian I think and quite cheap.  They folded all the way when opened, like a H&R would do, and closely resembled a Beretta single shot 412 series.

Don't recall that name.

There was one called the Galef Companion that folded.  I seem to recall there was at least one other name that was sold for a while.  They all appeared to be the same gun, made for several different companies, but I don't know who made them.

They were all single shot, hammerless, and the barrel folded all the way under the buttstock.  Not much help, but it's all I can tell you.

In Italian, "Canna Cromata" translates to "Chromed Barrell" ie.: yuour shotgun has a chrome lined bore.

The barrel is blued, but the lock itself is chromed, or stainless.
