Chapuis Armes C40 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Built on the same super-strong action as our over-and-under big game rifle, the Super Orion over-and-under game gun features the same interchangeable recoil/headspace plate and wide (32mm) locking lug set to bite in between the barrels. Scalloped and sculpted all-steel action with interchangeable recoil/headspace plate. Redesigned engraved english-style floral borders and game bird scenes on both action faces as well as action bottom. Blitz-type double trigger battery (single trigger on option). Straight english stock in AA fancy (extractor versions) or AAA fancy (ejector versions) hand-rubbed oil finished walnut with matching forend and walnut checkered buttplate (pistol grip stock optional). Shipped in a plastic gun case with Chapuis Armes logotype. This makes for a very robust and reliable gun and has let Chapuis Armes introduce the option of steel shot proofed barrels in both fixed and interchangeable choke versions. Superior proof mark procedure includes shooting a total of six overcharged (1 370 bar pressure) steel shot cartridges through each barrel. Most other makes of shotguns will not withstand the proof test when equipped with fixed chokes. The new barrels of the Super Orion over-and-under game gun are also available with internal interchangeable chokes options that also pass the steel shot proof. A specific surface treatment makes the interchangeable chokes very hard and durable. The interior profiles of both barrel and chokes have been specifically engineered to attain much better patterns than usual with steel pellets. Chapuis Armes has paid particular attention to the asthetics of the new Super Orion.
