This is a gun I just got off the bench.
I thought you would like to see the latest project.

This gun is imported from Italy by Chiappa Firearms.

A list of the work I did.
1. Sight work install a rear peep and a Pedersoli front sight.
2. Stock work cut the LOP down install a but pad and refinish the stocks with 20 hand rubbed layers of oil.
3. Action work clean up the hard corners and smooth the action.

Even if someone was not in to lever guns they would still appreciate that rifle as functional art. Very nice work.

Mr. Smith,

Wow!! The stuff that comes out of your shop is pure art. It may be art, but very functional art.

Thanks for posting these pics, and keep posting them. One of these days I'll get my hands on a lever action to send you.

Mr. Smith,

As long as you and others keep putting out works of craftsmanship like the many examples you've posted; the good times are far from over.

How do the Chiappa lever guns shoot?

They do not get good reviews on the Cowboy Action Shooting sites but who knows.

They are very pretty and are priced better than the Cimmaron lever guns.

Also...what caliber is that? 45-70?

I want a 16" Trapper in 357 mag.

Very nice. Don't do much with lever actions, but I can certainly appreciate them. The finest iron sight setups I have ever seen are on lever guns. Coupled with a properly fitting stock, they are marvelous. (Yes, I am a man and I can say "marvelous." :cool:)

I would like to know more about the rear peep. You wouldn't happen to have a pic of the sight picture?
