Chapuis .470 PH1

Adding a couple more pictures of my first double rifle to accompany an earlier post. It is set and ready for dangerous game in Zimbabwe 2 weeks from now! Made for Africa! I really like the figure and contrast in the wood.

It glows! Very nice double with beautiful wood!

Thanks! Has everything I want in a working double, and nothing I don’t need.

I’ve had it for a few months getting it ready for its maiden voyage to Africa.

I’ve had it for a few months getting it ready for its maiden voyage to Africa.

I had its sister in 450-400 on my first buff hunt. I wish you success and so excited for you!!!

That's a beautiful double. I LOVE the traditional looking pad and Chapuis rifles in general.

Congrats on the Chapuis 470. I acquired one about a year ago and it'll be heading to the Zambezi Valley June 2023. I love that gun.

Noticed the fly rod cases - are you going to try for tigerfish on the fly while in the Save?

 

[shotgungibbs]

That is gorgeous wood on your rifle! I have owned a Chapuis, and a Heym. They are both very strong solid rifles. Good luck and enjoy it on your hunt!

Beautiful rifle, congratulations. You will not go wrong in the Save, I assume buffalo is on the ticket?

 

[Phil Giordano]

So good to see a beautyful double and some great fly rods...

Congratulations! I'm a big fan of Chapuis doubles and have taken my 375H&H on four safaris.
Beautiful rifle!

Beutiful gun, real nice wood, looking really good in contrast to the recoil pad.
