FAS STORY 

At the beginning of 1972 Massimo Mencarelli founded FAS (Fabbrica Armi Sportive) and began the production of Domino match pistols, excellent products that would be requested by over 40% of international shooters.

 
In 1992 Raffaele, Massimo's son, joined his father's factory and founded his own company which he called Domino.
Father and son develop the new .22 FAS SP607 pistol, which will immediately bring the desired results; Gold medal at the 1994 and 1998 world championships.
In 1997 they presented the AP609 PCP compressed air gun, equipped with an innovative stainless steel pressure regulator.
 
At the IWA 2008 fair they present the FAS AR611 - the first Italian PCP rifle
 
40 years of production, over 50,000 sporting pistols in shooting ranges around the world.
Countless international and national trophies bear the FAS and DOMINO brands imprinted on the weapon, used by champions and shooting masters such as: 
John T. McNally, Daniel Cesar Felizia, 
Ion Corneliu, Jaspal Rana, Ansermet Michel, Basinski Igor, Meng Gang and many others...
Production will stop in 2013 with the death of its founder, Massimo Mencarelli's last wish.
