I seriously doubt that it's made in Italy. Marketing says "Italian design", meaning yup, they copied a Beretta or Benelli design. But likely the shotgun was and is still made in Turkey.
I've got a turkish shotgun (Sarsimalz factory) - it's the "New England Firearms" Excel Auto 5 - works pretty well so far...but I don't like the fact that the front sight is held on with only 1 screw instead of 2. when bumped, it can and has "swiveled" on the axis of the 1 screw, misaligning the sight.
There are LOTS of shotguns made in Turkey now, at Huglu, Sarsimalz, & elsehwere - and they are sold under LOTS of different brand names.
