New and unfired. These are a pretty cool novelty gun. Swings like a fine double rifle. :-)
I bought six or so of these and gave 3 to friends kind of as a gag gift for a dove hunt as one friend, we now call “plug”, has made friends with his game warden twice for failing to have a plug. The humorous part is he actually had a plug in the second time, but it was too short to prevent the third shell from loading. Always be legal with this fine Turkish made gem.

Anyway, I kept three and shoot one. I really like shooting it and shot it almost exclusively one season. One trigger. Firing order is right, left then top. Have factory box, case and chokes.

Fit and finish is actually pretty nice.

I am in Austin, Texas and go to the metroplex and Houston frequently. Really prefer not to ship. I have another one in camo as well—Realtree pattern from memory. New and unfired if interested.

Sold. Thanks much. These really are cool novelty guns.
 
PM SENT.. BARREL LENGTH? PRICE??
 
Sorry. Put away my fancy buffalo and lechwe back skins and just took the pictures quickly :)

Basically same gun but with Realtree Maax 5 camo. Has sling studs on this one. Without going into the attic to dig out the box, I believe these were $200 more than the wood stocked ones. Will do $1500 on this one. I buy high and sell low! It’s how I roll. :). New and unfired as well.

What a neat gun. The price seems reasonable. Thanks for listing these guns.

I also have the luck of buying high & selling low but reconcile that with the enjoyment I get for having owned a unique gun , I have to tell myself that a few times.

The story is as good as the gun. Thanks for sharing about "Plug". Looks like a perfect gun for its purpose. Nobody hits anything better on the second shot from the same barrel, you need diversity of chokes. The three barrel and four barrel guns served a niche that the autoloader never satisfied. (missing repeatably is the function of the pump and autoloader)

GLWS.

P.S. - Make "Plug" Come here to watch the sale and take a shellacking.
 
Have thought about buying one of these numerous times just to have something different.

Question: say you fire one or both the bottom barrels and then break open to reload. Does the trigger reset to the right barrel again?
 
Talk about "cool factor":)

I will try to check tomorrow. Pretty sure once broken open everything should reset to original order. Thanks.
 
I was the purchaser, you can absolutely trust @RR 314 he is a perfect gentleman.

What is the minimum you would take.

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
