Recently acquired this and now a business opportunity with a close friend has come up. It remains unfired since leaving the Heym factory in 1992. Was owned by a very wealthy collector in Illinois before finding it's way to me. The scope is no longer with the rifle. I also have loaded ammo and loose bullets if interested as well. After speaking with the guys at Jackson Armory in Dallas, TX this rifle is apparently one of extremely few to have left Germany configured this way. I'm asking $12,000 shipped in a hard sided case. Can provide more pictures upon request

@Garrett89 very nice looking rifle and I’m a Lefty too…but right now I’m selling my .470NE Chapuis double to acquire some more “funds” so that i can “reinvest” in additional fine firearms - like yours! Very nice gun and you are asking a fair price
 
Open to partial trades as well. Just let me know what you have
 
Lefty here. I would in a heart beat. If all my ducks were in a row.
 
That’s an awesome looking rifle. GLWS
 
Dear lefties. On every thread, every ad, whatever is being peddled, you always post "boy its nice, if it was a Lefty I'd buy it in a heartbeat!".

Yet here we are, again. 100% of the time, lefty stuff languishes on the forum. It's a lovely gun, but for whatever reason, that left hand can never seem to reach into the left back pocket to pull out a wallet.

It would take you two years waiting and a lot more money to order a lefty gun like this, and here it is on a silver patter for instant gratification.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
