Fellas, something really bugs me about this one. If you go for it, do your research.

I happen to know a engraver here in the states who engraved some Italian repro 73's for the factory. Most of them were done here after they were completed to save on import taxes.

It's one of the Chaparral guns. Not a Uberti.

Steve,
What are the tell tale signs that this rifle is a Chaparral rather than a Uberti?
