TFL Review Summary

There is a lot to like about this Fabarm L4S. Before you even pick it up, you can see this is a high-quality semi-auto. Ergonomically, it's one of the better shotguns we've seen in a while. What really hits it home with the L4S is the quality of the build. Fabarm truly makes a great product that they stand behind. You can feel the attention to detail when you start to shoot this shotgun. Another plus is the light weight. This gun is meant for the field. So if you're walking all day the light weight will make that more enjoyable. The trade-off is a little bit more felt recoil. We believe that this shotgun is a great option for someone who primarily hunts but may be interested in other pursuits every now and then, like some fun clay shooting.

Manufacturer Summary

FABARM USA is introducing an innovative new line of semiautomatic shotguns designed for bird hunting. The new L4S family of shotguns exhibits the same high level of precision and finish that FABARM is famous for in a product that is competitively priced for the North American market. The L4S incorporates an innovative new design that allows the fore-end to be removed without disassembling the shotgun. The design has two significant advantages. Removing the fore-end allows the action to be cleaned and lubricated without having to disassemble the whole gun. Additionally, it eliminates having the wood be part of the structural assembly of the gun, making the action and barrel relationship more accurate and stronger. By taking the stress off of the wood fore-end you also eliminate the forces that can damage and crack the wood. All grades will feature Turkish walnut with a satin oil finish. The L4S is lightweight making it a pleasure to carry in the field and has a gas operating system that significantly reduces recoil. It will handle every type of ammunition from 2 ¾" target to heavy 3" magnum hunting loads. Other notable features include a stock shim system for adjusting fit and TRIBORE HP™ tapered barrels for the ultimate in ballistic performance. The initial offering is available in three attractive grades: Initial Hunter (black action), Grey Hunter (silver action with game scene), and Deluxe Hunter (silver action with detailed game scene with gold inlays and upgraded wood).
