And, Chapuis Have a Straight Pull Rifle Introduction Too

Interesting to see European bread and butter rifles all going to a straight-pull format. Perhaps, something to do with the huge popularity of driven game hunting on the Continent?

Interesting. The bolt and carrier look similar to the Blaser system. Their bearing surface claim I think is irrelevant. More important with the tilting locking lugs is the mechanism that holds the lugs. Though this appears quite sound as they are on the Blaser.

I do like the position of the bolt and the rotary magazine. Would like to try one.
