FABARMS L4S Sporting. An excellent shotgun I've taken a look at more than a few times. However I'm an old geezer set in my ways so you won't see me shooting Skeet with anything other than a SxS or O/U. I shoot with someone who has the N2 XL and it's one heck of a package with an interchangeable rib and the slickest adjustable comb design I've ever seen.


I've stopped counting.

You may have challenges finding a Supersport for $1500. But a lightly used gun will be fine.


I kept coming back to the SS in my final decision making process, but the gas gun won out as I looked forward. I’m 56, and while I’m strong and in good shape now, the next 15 years will most likely hold some physical decline. I thought I could shoot the gas gun longer and more comfortably.

The other factor was cost. I decided I wanted this new acquisition into a new sport to have a warranty. A new Supersport was just more than I was comfortable spending. The L4S was already over my $1,500 budget.
