History of Famars In 1967, in the beautiful town of Gardone Val Trompia, Italy, young gunsmiths Mario Abbiatico and Remo Salvinelli, both sons of men involved in the area's gun making tradition, joined together to form Famars: Fabbrica Armi di Mario Abbiatico e Remo Salvinelli. Mario and Remo fused their love for double-barreled long guns with their passion for the art of Bulino engraving. Since its inception, Famars has been a leader of progress in bespoke gun design; owning many key developments over the decades, from a self-cocking hammer gun to a four-barreled shotgun to a removable locking mechanism. FAMARS has introduced fine masterpieces with engraving and photo realism paired with the finest precision in elegance, fit, finish, and function. This is a testament to the creative genius of Mario Abbiatico. Each day in Brecia, the silicon valley of gun makers, our master craftsmen at Famars work each minute and every hour to make our precision a reality; our perfection becomes your obsession. Today Mario's children, Cristina and Paolo, lead Famars in its mission to develop bespoke guns in the modern world following the same principles of their father and his founding partner: impeccable functionality and equivalent aesthetic design. Famars comes to the USA Famars Italy has recently undertaken a new venture: Famars USA. After nearly 50 years of being located in Brescia, Italy, Famars has decided to expand operations and venture to the United States. This branching is our way to better service our loyal customers. We have chosen the center of New England as our point of entry. The beautiful New England bird hunting traditions, repeating four seasons, diverse topography, world class shooting, and accessible transportation makes Rhode Island the perfect location. Rich in Italian tradition, Rhode Island is the perfect port of call. Because of the clients and friends that we have made here in the United States we want to better serve you in all of the aspects of fine gun making. This includes custom orders, custom fittings, caring customer service, and expedited delivery. Ultimately, we want to better service all of your hunting needs. Along with our new port of call we will also be introducing a line of the finest shooting accessories for the discerning sportsman in Fall 2011. We have also developed several world class gentlemen's knives that are only available from FAMARS, developed solely in our factories and from our master craftsmen. With a desire to have a base in the United States the Abbiatico family partnered with Paul Mihailides, a well known international developer of consumer goods and financing, as well as a outdoor enthusiast, to chair Famars USA in Coventry, RI.
