Previous shotgun manufacturer located in Biot, France until circa 2005.
Laporte Holding manufactured a unique reduced recoil 12 ga. O/U shotgun called the SwingTrap/Pro II, reducing recoil by 50% and noise by 75%. This was accomplished by the barrels being surrounded by a round shroud, which dissipated most of the recoil and noise. These guns had little or no importation into the U.S.
The company continues to manufacture trap throwers and related equipment.
