BattleRifleG3 16 Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 With the history behind it, perhaps contact museums. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SLUF 0 Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 I'm not an expert, but based upon what I've seen, high-end units (which this gun obviously is) going for at collector shows, I would think a moderate sized bundle, especially depending upon who is the manufacturer. Cast around on-line for leads to houses that specialize in investment grade European firearms such as yours. JMHO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TonyRumore 1,332 Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 How do you fire the 6.5mm barrel? I see two triggers, two hammers, and 3 barrels. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
polarman 0 Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 I really do not remember. I have not handled the rifle since the pics were posted in 2004. I'll have to take a look at it again sometime. I had it all figured out back then, but it was a long time ago.

IndyArms 10,186 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 i have never handled a drilling myself.. If its a Merkel... its probably worth a small fortune... Very pretty!!! I am actually amazed at the speed of the reply in what would normally be termed a NECROTHREAD!!! LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites

magsite20 1,664 Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 found: Well, I can't tell you much about this drilling except who made it and where it was made.Gewehr Fabrik means Gun Maker or Arms Maker, so the maker was H. Ansborg.It was made in Zella-Mehlis which is a town near Erfurt, Germany. and: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=349384825 nice piece. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lone Eagle 839 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 I knew a couple of people years ago with "Drillings". One was a 12/20/30-06. IIRC, the forward trigger controlled the gooseneck hammers(you could discharge both barrels if both hammers were cocked), and thre rear trigger was the rifle barrel, cocked on action open. Could be the other way around. Many "survivalist" prefer Drillings to standard Pistol/Rifle/Shotgun loadouts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
