Chapuis Armes in .470 NE

Hope someone can help with my dilemma. I have been considering .375 H&H and .470 NE options and have been leaning toward a double in .470 NE. I have shot a few and have no problem with the recoil. Dilemma is what to go for, good used English (costs a fortune and so few about but may be worth more on the second hand market in the future) or new and probably foreign (cheaper but lower used values). I have considered the Krieghoff but have now come across a French company “Chapuis Armes” they do a boxlock, colour hardened finish, nice wood, the Brousse model for something approaching reasonable money.

Has anyone had any experience with these rifles, the one I have seen at the CLA game fair in .375 pointed well with good balance and appeared to be well made with a lifetime guarantee.

Thanks

Phil
