The Mondo Caccia 2012 fair, the traditional and sustainable hunting show at Carrara Fiere, ended tonight with a great success.
Good success with the public with many enthusiasts who crowded the stands where the best brands and products were exhibited. Even in the last hours of opening editorial initiatives and debates that testify to the great vitality of the movement.
“We are satisfied with the results of the Exhibition which recorded a strong participation of enthusiasts who visited the stands and attended the areas where the demonstration activities took place until the last minute of opening. Mondo Caccia was the answer to the many Tuscan and central Italian practitioners who found in this fair, and at this particular time of the year, an answer to their needs for technical but also cultural information ”.
Paris Mazzanti, director of Carrara Fiere, notes the good result of the second edition of Mondo Caccia when the last visitors still enter the pavilions that have welcomed ninety exhibitors on 4.500 square meters, to which are added about 2.000 square meters dedicated to exhibitions and events that have involved both hunters and many enthusiasts and onlookers who have experimented with laser rifle shooting techniques and, in a competition field, competition archery, as well as exhibitions and spaces dedicated to the rediscovery of a culture that has roots as deep as that of hunting.
Very interesting the conference activity and the editorial promotion developed during the three days which allowed to present unpublished publications made by professional writers but also by practitioners who demonstrate that they know how to add passion to competence. The final day was characterized by two events that underline the technical and cultural level of the 2012 edition inspired by a modern and sustainable vision of hunting.
The first had as protagonist Roberto Fabris who, together with Carlo Romanelli, explained how a strong rediscovery of the so-called "small calibers" almost obsolete rifles is taking place which, in recent years, have found many new consents among the enthusiasts who had preferred for a long time much more powerful weapons.
"We record a growing success - said Roberto Fabris, national coordinator of the club Italia 28/410 - because after having organized only for passion and on an experimental level some shooting competitions with 28 gauge and 410 gauge shotguns today we are able to announce even the Second National Grand Prix valid for the Italian small caliber championship which will take place on 24 June in Montecatini.
It will be a skeet shooting competition, a Compak hunting course that offers the opportunity to try their hand at many hunters ”. If the participation of shooters is in line with the events that recently took place in Tuscany, success is assured. "By now - said Fabris in his speech - all the manufacturing companies have begun to research powders and cartridges and to produce small caliber rifles and export them to countries such as Great Britain and the United States where these calibers have many admirers" .
"Once upon a time there was the hunt" is the title of the volume presented by Cesare Ricciarelli, a long-time hunter-writer (he has signed nine publications) who this time gave space above all to the feelings that hunting inspires, especially when it is practiced as a testimony of love for nature.
