For Sale, Chapuis RGEX 9.3 x74R S/S with two sets of rings (1” and 30 mm) for the factory swing mounts. This RGEX gun has an upgraded walnut stock with right hand palm swell, single trigger, extended tang for strength through the wrist, ejectors, and color case hardened with game scenes on receiver. Rifle has 100 meter regulation targets for both bare rifle and with scope mounted. The Chapuis cocking system cocks both barrels on opening, not recoil activated cocking. The rifle fires the right barrel first, left barrel with the second trigger pull. No searching for the second trigger and no doubling. The gun has a few marks from going in and out of the safe. I can provide additional photos. The rings are included, but the scopes in the photos are not included. The 1” rings were factory provided, the 30 mm rings were added later, I believe. Both are the Recknagel type QD rings. My experience with the rifle were similar to or slightly better than these targets. I purchased this rifle used. The original owner said he had fired less than 25 shots through it. I’ve shot it at the range and fired it, approximately 55 times, before developing health problems that have not allowed me to shoot it since. It is tight, on face and in good working order. The RGEX is an upgraded gun, as noted above. It has the original 14 3/8 LOP. $5500 plus shipping and insurance. For an additional $165 plus shipping, I will include my RCBS 9.3x74R dies, 50 Hornady 286 grain bullets, 63 once fired AA brass, 98 nickel plated primed Federal brass, and a mixed lot of approximately 50 Norma and 15 S&B fired brass as part of this package. This is a hard one to part with, but returning to Africa and bear hunting has been removed from my future. Someone needs to go on a spring black bear hunt, or take this to Africa and post their trip and photos. Thanks for looking. Bfly

Africa is calling. Imagine walking the bush with a quick handling double, two in the spout, two between your fingers. You are ready for what Africa offers! Bfly

Here is a photo of the bottom of the receiver. I will post the requested additional photos of the sights and the scope rings either later today or tomorrow. I believe I have responded to all emails. If you haven't heard back from me please let me know. Thanks Bfly

These are sweet handling DRs. I had one that had the extra 20ga 27" barrel set and a 2-7 VXII on top, and it was extremely well regulated. I loved the gun, so I sold it.
Any buyer would fall in love with this Frenchy double rifle.
