Have purchased a Drilling and have some questions.
Double shotgun marked 16 Ga., but bottom of rifle barrel stamped: 7.7 x 57 mm.
I am not familiar with this mark and any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.

    I have a hammer drilling 16x16 and an rifle that is marked on the chamber 360+57D below is R.W.S. and to the side ia a stamp that looks like a pair of fishing rods. There is no makers name anywhere on the gun . A chamber cast seems to indicate the cal. at 9x57r is this possible?

    I recently acquired an antique hammered drilling. The SXS shotgun barrels are 2.5" 16 ga. over a rifle barrel of 9.5X47R. It has a maker's name and location of "E. Bamann, Landshut." I would appreciate any information anyone may have about this maker. I have spoken with someone who has seen another drilling with this name on it, but he had no other info. Thanks.

    Hey folks! Hope everyone is well.

    So my dad brings this over to me because he knows I like guns and wants my advice. Well...its not really what I meddle with but I told him I'd ask you fine folks and try to come up with something. A friend of his has offered to sell this to him for $2k as an investment and because the friend needs money but I don't know totally what it is much less what it's worth and don't want to see him get hosed.

    I know it's a German Drilling. I don't know if that E. Walther is THE WALTHER (as in ppk etc...) or if it's a coincidence and was just some random gun maker. The trigger guard seems to be made of some sort of horn or something. It looks black and shiny to the eye, so I took a picture with flash to show some of the detail past the external. Is that original? It had some shells still in the stock that say 303 British so I assume thats the caliber of the rifle. The undercarriage of the shotgun barrels has an encircled 16...I'm assuming that means 16 gauge. I've done a little reading to try and educate myself a little but I'd still feel better hearing from someone more knowledgeable than I. It says "Heidersbach, B. / Suhl" on one barrel and "E. Walther Gewehrfabrik" on the other. I know Suhl is a place but I don't know the other two names. Thanks so much for any help anyone can give.

    I recently purchased a collection that included 2 drillings. Seller thought they were both Colt Sauers. Upon closer inspection one is a 16 ga sxs over a 8x57. Engraving on vent reads Walter Uhlig Halle-s. Any help on telling me what I have and what it is worth. It is in exceptional condition.
