OVERALL FUNCTIONALITY
The Raffaello Lord is built upon the renowned Benelli Interia System. The elegance of the Benelli Interia System lies in the rigor of its design, constructional simplicity and ease of maintenance. There are three main components: the bolt, that acts as an inertial mass and slides freely along guides made in the sides of the receiver, the locking head and the large free spring, mounted on the bolt. You could easily put 500,000+ rounds and still function without flaw.
Here's an up-close look at the Benelli Interia System:
Classic Italian craftsmanship echoes through the Raffaello Lord through it's handsome Grade-III walnut stock that is seamlessly wrapped in the same full-grain leather used in Ferrari's. The result is a clean and attractive design that is extremely pleasant to handle.
The Ergal receiver is processed with a special bronze BMB (Benelli Multilayer Barrier) treatment and engraved with a three-dimensional technique to match the leather’s texture. This fine firearm also includes a removable silver grip cap that can be custom engraved and a checkered walnut butt plate. Other features include a carbon fiber rib, and a sculpted bronze-colored magazine cap with incorporated sling swivel stud.
The Raffaello Lord is an all-around amazing field gun meant for upland hunting. No matter the environment, whether it be the plains of Argentina or the mountains of Montana, the Raffaello Lord performs all the same. For your next upland hunt, there is no better than the exclusive Raffaello Lord.
