Pardini Arms is an Italian firearms manufacturer founded in the beginning of the 1980s by Giampiero Pardini, a prominent marksman in Italian target shooting. The company specializes in firearms for competition use, producing air pistols, air rifles, small-caliber and large caliber handguns. Their pistols are known for their characteristic swept-back grips and low bore axis.
Usage
Several of the firm's products are competitive at the international level, with seven medals being won by athletes equipped with Pardini's guns at the 2016 Summer Olympics.[1] In another example, during the 2010 ISSF World Shooting Championships, approximately two-thirds of the rapid fire athletes used a Pardini pistol.[2]
