Sabatti
It is immediately after World War II (1946) that Antonio Sabatti entered in partnership with Giuseppe Tanfoglio and gave a strong, fresh push to the production of hunting firearm components in general and locks in particular. Around 1956 the two partners started manufacturing automatic pistols for personal defense. Four years later they decided to go their own separate way and dissolve the partnership.
Afterward, in 1960, Antonio Sabatti’s children founded a new company that has been growing ever since and has become extremely respected among sporting gun makers the world over. At present times, Antonio Sabatti’s children – Emanuele, Antonio, and Marco – are still successfully manufacturing hunting and competition shotguns and perfecting them to better meet the expectation of increasingly demanding hunters and shooters internationally.
