"You'll shoot your eye out"
Reply:I knew a guy in Germany into guns. He described an Austrian made weapon as you describe.





His description was a double barrel shotgun with a 30-06 rifle barrel on the top and in between the SG barrels. In addition he said there was an insert for one SG barrel to convert it to a .22.





He said the design was due to the way hunting was done there. As I understand it the Forest Meister would take out a group. When game was spotted he would allow someone to shoot it. You never would know what game you would get to take a shot at so this one weapon had all you might need.





I once saw a group like this from the air. There were 3 of us in an OH-58. The pilot pissed them off and we got a round thru the VHF shark fin on the bottom of the bird.
