ShowbartAnother Chapuis 9.3...
...for me! 2nd one, 1st was coin finish, very nice but I really like this case color version. Took it to the range today, it's a tack driver. Like I expected different?
Got this 2nd UGEX from Kebco, perfect transaction.

ShowbartI'll try but I usually can't get that close with this camera. The engraving is stock Chapuis rose & scroll and is exactly the same as on the coin finish guns where it is easier to see.
Funny thing is, and it was my 6 year old son who caught this, the engraving is signed. What a hoot! Signed computerized laser engraving!! It's obvious he still wanted credit for the design even if it was done with a CAD program.
