What’s with the scope? It looks guaranteed to smack you in the face when fired.
He’s not holding it in a proper position to fire right at the exact moment, he looks like he’s either raising or lowering gun at the moment of the photo. Face would be much further back than you’d expect when firing, fully behind his firing hand.
If I had a gun this is what I would want.
Called a [Drilling]!(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combination_gun#Drillings)
I finally decided to do something about mobile links and have gotten redirector and it works. Im replying to you but this is more for folks that come across and have the same issue I have. Once I got the redirector add on I put in:

to: $1.$2
Thanks, I thought it looked more like a hunting weapon than a military one. I’d guess it was formerly the property of some high ranking Nazi.
Not necessarily, but a Drilling has always been a more expensive weapon (and still is) due to having three barrels.
It is, however, still popular, especially among Grouse hunters, despite the price.
What’s this then? A zweiling?
