Scott,

Most of the focus on Chapuis is on accuratereloading.com where the Chapuis double rifles are regarded as very fine entry level firearms with the focus on their 9.3x74R, often sold with 20 gauge shotgun barrels.

Regards, Tim

Check out http://www.kebcollc.com/ He carries them.

Ken posts here on occasion. One of the most honest dealers I have ever dealt with. You can give him a call if you have questions.

I'll second for Ken's honsety. I've paid a visit to him a few years ago and bought a couple Merkels at a great price! Ken is a "NO BS" guy!

The double rifles are quite popular here, mostly in 9.3X74R.
I hear good things about them, and as posted above, some do carry an extra set of 20 bore barrels.
Not very common as shotguns.

Chapuis was at one time the largest maker of double rifles in the world. Not sure whether that's still true, but wouldn't be surprised if it is.
