Breda Expands in the U.S. With its New Hand-Crafted Victoria Over/Under

Making shotguns in Val Trompia, Italy since 1947, each Breda Victoria over/under is handcrafted and hand-fitted in limited editions by a single Italian master craftsman from start to finish. This singular approach ensures that every component – each bearing matching serial numbers – is precisely fitted to create a harmonious whole. No two Victoria shotguns are identical; each represents the skill, experience, and artistic vision of its maker, resulting in a truly unique firearm that reflects both Italian heritage and individual craftsmanship. Multiple levels of engraving and premium walnut grades allow customers to select a Victoria that matches their aesthetic preferences while maintaining the functional excellence that defines the line. Available in 12 and 20 gauge, the Breda Victoria marries meticulous craftsmanship with Italian precision.
