Engraved German Triple Barrel Shotgun

This unique take on the classic German drilling features two twelve gauge barrels over a single 32 gauge barrel. The barrels all have 2 9/16 inch chambers, and the 12 gauge barrels are choked improved modified/full. The barrels have bead on blade front and flip up rear notch sights. The rib features a gold inlaid inscription panel marked "DR. CARLO DE FELICE". The casehardened receiver features tight, intricate scroll engraving on the sides, bottom, trigger guard, and upper tang. Fitted with three separate triggers, Greener style side safety, and a tang mounted actuator switch for the rear sight. Mounted on a multi-point checkered Schnabel tip forearm and pistol grip stock with a scalloped hard rubber grip cap, raised cheekpiece, sling swivels, and a serrated hard rubber recoil pad. The barrel and stock dimensions are: 12 gauge bore diameter at 9 inches from breech .722/.722 inches; 32 gauge bore diameter at 9 inches from breech .502 inches; 12 gauge wall thickness at 9 inches from breech .039/.039 inch; 32 gauge wall thickness at 9 inches from breech .049 inch; drop at comb 1 1/2 inches; drop at heel 2 5/8 inches; length of pull 15 inches.

ConditionVery good as refinished with 90% of the blue on the barrels, light muzzle wear, handling marks and traces of light pitting under the blue. The receiver has 50% of the muted case colors with the balance aged to a mostly silver patina with fine engraving and small handling marks. The wood is very good with handling marks, small indentations, dings, and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. Needs trigger work as both 12 gauge barrels fire when rear trigger is pulled.
