Description:
Chapuis Safari Express with wood upgrade, 470 N.E. -- Near Mint Condition

#40571 Chapuis 470 Nitro Express - 23 5/8" (60 cm) ejector barrels with German claw mounts for quick release of the Austrian Kahles Helia C 30 mm 1.1-4x24 scope.  This double rifle has polished coin finished case-hardened receiver, full-coverage hand engraving (not border engraving) by master engraver, Ivan Thierry, and fancy upgrade of dense dark walnut with strong figure.  This model is a step above the Brousse and the PH1.  This exact gun is shown on Youtube, Special Guns with Roger Rule, Episode 4.  

The stock exhibits dense wood with great figure and strong color and contrasts.  Beavertail forend, open pistol grip stock with Holland & Holland shadowline cheekpiece, rolled-edge trigger guard with tang extending to steel engraved trapdoor grip cap plus 3 tie-down screws in the guard strap and sling eyes.  The checkered butt stock features a slight palm swell for the right handed shooter.  When opened, fired cases are ejected and unfired cases are extracted. 

LOP is 14.5" over 1" leather covered recoil pad.  Weight is 11 lbs. 8 oz without scope, 12 lbs. 12 oz. with scope, the desired weight for the recoil of the .470 N.E.

This is a 99% gun, near new for both wood finish and metal, with crisp checking still with sharp points.  You have to look closely to find light signs of handling. This gun is proven, is extremely accurate, and perfectly regulated (factory proof target included).  

Included is the maker's case and accessories to include Hornady reloading die, 50 rds, 500 gr bullets, etc., see photos.

MSR is 14,900.00 without claw mount and scope.  Add another $2,170 ($1,500 claw mounts, $1,270 scope) for a total of $17,670 -- asking $12,499 and it's already sighted in - plus accessories!  

Seller is Active Duty Air Force located in Ohio, U.S.  3-day non-firing inspection for full refund.  Shipping is $TBD to buyer's FFL based on location.  Payment by MO, certified check, wire transfer or personal check with wait for validation.
