Chiappa 1886 rifle??

[blueoval56]

Hey guys, was wondering if anyone has ever seen one of these in Canada or where I might be able to find one. Its a Chiapa 1886 with a 26 inch octagon barrel in 45-70:

I unfortunately caught the 45-70 bug a little late and I already have an 1895GS, which is great for crarrying, but I'm looking for something a little more classic with a longer(preferably) octagon barrel. I would buy an 1895 Cowboy in a heart beat if I could find one. So this looks like a decent option.

we just received five of the kodiak trappers in with the 18.5 " barrel. very solid looking rifles.

That's great to hear. Are you planning on getting any of the 26 inch barrel versions in?

I have one with the octagon barrel and like it a lot. the sights are not the best though. but it works well and looks great. three holes touching at 50m.

Marstar handles them. Click the link at the top of the page.

that's the 1892, but as they deal with them, I'm sure John could fix you up with an 1886
