FAIR Pathos

The FAIR Pathos, aptly named after the Greek word for “passion,” embodies the essence of hunting as a deep-seated pursuit. Available in 12, 16, 20, 28, and .410 gauges, it’s meticulously crafted to meet the discerning needs of hunting enthusiasts.

Crafted with dedicated action bodies (excluding the 410 gauge which is built upon the 28 bore action), the Pathos boasts hand-made engravings plated with real gold. Its selected quality walnut is adorned with fine-pitch checkering and finished in an extra-glossy oil, while the bright black action and classic solid top rib exude a timeless elegance. The rounded-edge stock and fore-end, along with the wood butt plate, add a touch of classical charm. This attention to detail reflects the age-old traditions of Val Trompia’s master gunsmiths. The Pathos arrives in an elegant ABS case, a fitting presentation for this exquisite firearm.

The construction of the Pathos adheres to the preferences of discerning customers. Action bodies, trigger plates, iron fore-ends, and barrel extractors are precision-milled from forged steel ingots, eschewing alloy receivers for robust steel components. The action body maintains a slender profile, concealing internal batteries, each equipped with a double safety notch for secure operation.

An oversize block, measuring 30.50 mm for 12 bore models, rests on double lugs, ensuring the shotgun’s steadfastness. The barrels, forged from a special three-alloyed steel, are meticulously machined from bored bars. Internal chroming of the bore and chambers significantly augments longevity, bolsters corrosion resistance, and optimises shot pattern distribution.

While a single trigger configuration stands as standard, the option for double triggers can be accommodated, ensuring a personalised shooting experience. For left-handed shooters, a dedicated version is available, albeit at an additional cost. Notably, only 12 and 20 bore models carry the distinction of being steel shot proofed.
