About Zabala Hermanos: Founded in 1932 in the famed gunmaking town of Eibar, Spain, Zabala Hermanos was a family-owned manufacturer that produced over 600,000 shotguns across its history, including private-label side-by-sides for American importers like Kassnar Imports, J.L.

Photos are taken under intense, high-definition lighting to give buyers the clearest possible view of the firearm's true condition. This lighting can occasionally make minor blemishes — small scuffs, finish wear, or surface marks — appear more pronounced than they are in hand.
