Has anyone seen / shot the new Mathelon African Drilling?

Just watched this video after I received the link from a friend in France - the rifle has 3 triggers, one for each barrel and is offered in 458 Win and 470 NE. Unusual design - I'm not sure if there have been other three trigger drillings before - but Eric Mathelon is a genius. The guns will be very well made.

Waiting for the experts' opinions . . .

Good hunting, everyone! Youtube link from Chassons.com

Very nice indeed.


I would have preferred a smaller calibre in between like 375H&H ad maybe a bit smaller still like 9.3 x 74R but that is my HO only.

I've handled his older work (2000-2002 ish) both the double rifle drillings and the triple express. His earlier stuff was much more plain, minimal engraving or even no engraving if memory serves me correctly. But the quality was very nicely done, and my gunsmith was impressed by the accuracy/convergence of them.
