It is the fi rst of a long series of guns, produced since the 1950’s , that bears his name. In 1957 at the age of 25, Daniele Perazzi founded Armi Perazzi and established his own factory where he has worked every day, together with his son Mauro and his daugther Roberta, until his death. From the beginning Perazzi shooters achieved considerable success and the name and reputation of Perazzi became established and widely known. For 50 years Perazzi have built prestigious game and competition guns that are a fusion between traditional gunsmithing, high technology and the selection of excellent raw materials. The perfect balance and handling and the innovations that have been made during this time have resulted in a gun suitable for every discipline and made the company a world leader in clay shooting.

James Clear - Deliberate Practice
What is Deliberate Practice? Let’s define deliberate practice. Deliberate practice refers to a special type of practice that is purposeful and systematic. While regular practice might include mindless repetitions, deliberate practice requires focused attention and is conducted with the specific goal of improving performance. Read The Beginner’s Guide to Deliberate Practice to learn exactly how you can start practicing deliberately. You’ll also find seven in-depth examples of how to practice deliberately. Can You Achieve Anything With Enough Practice?
Deliberate practice does not mean that you can fashion yourself into anything with enough work and effort, though. While human beings do possess a remarkable ability to develop their skills, there are limits to how far any individual can go. Your genes set a boundary around what is possible.
However, while genetics influence performance, they do not determine performance. Do not confuse destiny with opportunity. Genes provide opportunity. They do not determine our destiny. It’s similar to a game of cards. You have a better opportunity if you are dealt a better hand, but you also need to play the hand well to win.
