Chiappa 1874 Sharps
Does anyone here have experience with the Chiappa 1874 Sharps? Someone told me that it is the same rifle as the Armi Sport one or they are made in the same factory at least. Thanks for any info.

I've read what they have to say by tooting their own horn what I was wanting was to see is if anyone here had any 'experience' with them. Thanks for your input.

It came in yesterday, man is that thing pretty, fit and finish are fantastic. Checkering is all pointed with no over runs, wood to metal finish is tight with no unsightly gaps. Interior of the barrel looks smooth enough, lets hope it shoots as good as it looks.

Well, does it shoot, or what?...

FISH!!

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."

I'm sorry I thought I had posted on how it shoots already. It averaged 2 inches at 100yds. with the first loading I tried. I haven't gotten to try to tailor any loads for it yet but it looks promising to me.
