My new Chapuis arrived yesterday, and after paying all taxes (Brazilian taxes are 60% on the price of gun+freight) I got it through customs.

What a beauty!!!

The wood is much better than I had hoped. It is rated AAA but to me it is exibition grade.
Wood to metal work is flawless.
The extra 20 gauge barrel with separate foreend has a perfectly fit with extractors timing also perfect. Ran to the club and shot a 22/25 in olympic trench, better than several guys with their Perazzis. It has a super tight shot pattern!
The gun is superbly regulated for the Norma ammo, but will need some work for the solids in intend on using for our water buffalo.

This morning I trying to cancel a few appointments to free a couple of days and head to the amazon to shoot a few buff...
