ABOUT US

The history of our business begins with the history of our family; I'd say the two run parallel. We've been in the world of work and weapons for four generations. My grandfather began his career in a small mechanical workshop, working on what was once the quintessential means of transportation: the bicycle. In that small workshop, a hotbed of work and passion, he founded the bicycle factory "Officine Veglia."

It took its name from the town where the factory was located: San Giacomo di Veglia.

In addition to his passion for mechanics, he also shared a great passion for firearms, and after the First World War, he began a small production of over-and-under and side-by-side shotguns, entirely hand-built.

The arrival of my father, Gian Franco, in the family business, along with his wife Gelinda, led the company from the production of bicycles and handcrafted weapons to the marketing of finished products for hunting and fishing.

The transition period culminated, after 10 years, with the opening of a new large store that became a point of reference for the entire province and beyond.

Thinking of his four children's future careers, in 1976, together with his wife and the help of his sister Rina, he took over a gun shop in a village near Conegliano and named it after his mother: REGINA.

I remember that as a child, my favorite pastime was walking around in shorts behind the shop counters and pulling out drawers.

Then, step by step, I began to box a few shotshells and, a little later, to calibrate my first air rifle. My passion for guns and everything that went with them grew.

From archery to pistol shooting, clay pigeon shooting, and finally precision shooting at medium and long distances. Always supported by his wife Lorena and then by his collaborators Riccardo and Susanna, over all these years we have strived to offer our loyal customers a selection of quality and excellent products. We always strive to provide professional service, targeted advice, and assistance that meets our standards.

In 2014, their children Nicola and Arianna joined the company, bringing new energy and innovative ideas. With their contribution, a new online sales service was launched in 2015, with immediate availability and rapid deliveries, offering further support to our loyal customers.

A WARM THANK YOU to all those who have believed in us and shown us their trust over all these years. They return to our shop every day for their needs.

Thank you, Francesco Salvador
