I'd happily contribute to the trip funding for "mast game animals taken with a single weapon" Guinness book entry! That last combination gun where the rifle sight popped up when the selector was on rifle and popped back down when the selector was on shotgun was _way_ cool!
my dad was a jeweler and engraver but he also did a lot of gunsmithing. i remember him working on a drilling when i was a boy, i remember it was engraved with lots of floral and wood motif, the selector was broken. he machined a new selector for it but thats about all i remember of the gun.
Beautiful thank you for sharing These always seem under priced compared to British double rifles that don't begin to match the mechanical complexity and artistic ability of its maker
Not magazines that I know of. All of them are break action weapons, one round per barrel. I'm not aware of any with bayonet lugs. They were all hunting weapons.
Beautiful and marvelous weapons.

Quite a few drillings do that. The Faller did until he installed the scope mounts. Apparently, he couldn't work around the pin for it.
I love these videos, you do a great job of making "BEHOLD... My stuff!" into an entertaining and informative series.

8x65r is a Brenneke caliber.
I have massive gun lust here ...
I have five double rifle drillings and looking for #6.
8x56 not big enough for large deer? I'm surprised.
were there drillings with bayonet lugs and magazines?
