It has 4 rifle barrels in a half-circle above a 16 gauge shotgun. Calibers from left to right are 9.3x82R, followed by two in 9.1x52R, and finally a 11x74R over the 16 gauge shotgun. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/ulWEEwS.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/ghRI4dz.png)

Mike, Most Interesting. Just because they could, I guess.
How about a shot of the trigger/selector mechanism please.

When your government has too much to say about how many guns you can own....

Sure it would have made a great stagecoach gun! I would have felt better with that than just a double.

The selectors are those ears in front of the firing pins. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/BOwJvQu.png)

I am pleased that it was not me who was given the task of regulating the rifle barrels.

I agree bushveld. How hard would it be to load a rifle round with a pocket full of cartridges in 3 different calibers?

Good thing they put a 16 gauge barrel in the middle, instead of a 12.
Sure would be heavy if it was a 12.
Best,
Ted

Very nice piece of workmanship and some history to go along with it. Thanks for sharing.
Could you please show the breech face on how it was designed.
