That’s a wimpy one, that bottom barrel needs to be 10 ga not 20. Pretty cool actually never seen one like that.

I was able to shoot something similar once,
Merkel, twin 12 gauge barrels, bottom barrel was 8mm mauser
And had a 22 barrel in the rib.
Really cool, but the barrel selection was also the safety, basically like a H pattern ger shift.

Many years ago I worked with a master gunsmith who occasionally was given a drilling or trilling(vierling) to work on. Most were guild guns from Germany or Austria where they were a symbol of extraordinary craftsmanship and precision to the maker and a symbol of status to the owner.
I've never held a weapon like in this thread but have shot many amazing examples of high quality firearms.

My dad owned a tackle/gun shop in the early 90's. He somehow got a early 1900's over under that was a 16ga and either 30/30 or 30-06. The gun was in amazing shape but didn't have the engraving the one above has, it was still beautiful gun. I am not sure it he ever shot it but I remember him talking about the value being above 10k at the time.

Not even close to the same category of firearms as this weapon but one of my most regrettable firearms sales was a Stevens or Savage I can't remember now who made it. 22 LR over a 20 gauge barrel. Wish it was still in my safe

I had one in 222 over 20 gauge.

Wish I had kept that one too.

I had one of those also. It blew it up. Being a dumb kid I kept trying to increase the speed of the 222.
Turning ground squirrels into red mist was cool, until I blew the ejector and a piece of the lock off. Fortunately it was the side away from my face.
