Chiappa Triple Threat

[MTW]

Anyone know much about Chiappa's Triple Threat shotgun? I just came across it while looking up something else and it struck my curiousity. I am interested in the price of it, and their different models. With the weight of the 12 gauge with 28" barrel being around 9 pounds it doesn't seem to be a practical hunting gun. I also went on Chiappa's website and sent an email their Canadian distributor but after two weeks I still haven't had a reply.

Thanks for your info.

you can't pump for the difference in price?

That's the Triple Crown you're referring to. Just think, you'd have one more shot if you needed it. How can you put a price on that when you're hunting? Be "that guy". Firing sequence is right, left, top. US$1,541 at Irunguns. Only 5 left. http://www.irunguns.com/product.chiappa-triple-crown-overunder-shotgun-12-gauge-28-barrel

I owned a triple threat, ended up selling it, it's a super cool shotgun that will put a smile on your face every time it's in your hands, but it's kinda heavy, and 3 barrels shot different POI. I think the triple threat with the stock extension removed would be perfect truck gun, but it's too expensive to be that. Fit and finish was very nice,
locked up tight. I might grab one again for the right price.

I was surprised to see one at Canadian Tire, I think it was around $1600?

I had closer look at the price tag - $2000.

Ian at Forgotten Weapons figures it will be rare & collectable down the road, because
Chiappa won't make or be able to sell many.

Thanks for the info. It would be a fun gun to own and good conversational piece.

At the Brooks gun show there was a new one at 1900$.

one of the local Canadian tires had one last time I was there I just can't justify the price tag

Easy for it to be rare. Harder to be collectible. Needs to have found an enthusiastic market, not just be weird. My guess is there are better ways to invest your money than buy one of these boat anchors and wait for the value to go up.

Cambodian Tire had it for $1700??? Most retailers are selling it for almost $2k. Dominion Arms/Norinco should make a version of this.
