This Caesar Guerini Summit Black Ascent Sporting is a right-hand 12-gauge over/under built in Italy and proofed in 2024 (IT24). It pairs 32-inch tri-alloy steel MaxisBore barrels with DueCon long forcing cones, a raised mid-height tapered rib designed for a 50/50 point of impact, and a factory DTS adjustable Monte Carlo stock. The black receiver wears factory scroll engraving with gold 'CAESAR GUERINI' and 'SUMMIT' inlays protected by Invisalloy.

The Black Ascent Sporting configuration features a blued/black receiver finished in Invisalloy with factory scrollwork and gold model marquees. Proof marks include IT24, the CIP S with Italian proof-house crest, and 'Made in Italy'. Matching serials are present on the monobloc and receiver interior.
The 32-inch tri-alloy steel barrels use Caesar Guerini’s MaxisBore profile with DueCon long forcing cones and an extended choke system for competition flexibility. A mid-height tapered sporting rib, approximately 10–8 mm and specified here as a 10 mm raised mid rib, is intended for a 50/50 POI. Ventilated side ribs aid balance and heat dissipation, and the gun employs automatic ejectors with a Deeley-style forend latch.
The right-hand stock is walnut with an oil finish and Caesar Guerini’s DTS adjustable Monte Carlo comb, allowing on-gun fit tuning. Ergonomics include a right-hand palm swell, cast-off, and toe-out, plus a recoil pad. Length of pull is 15.0 inches.
Controls and fire controls are competition-oriented: a tang safety with barrel selector and a single selective, inertia-operated trigger. The action is an over/under break-action with a two-round capacity and 2 3/4-inch chambers.
