Folks:

Can anyone tell me if Browning ever made a combo gun...(22/410)?? (30-06/12)

If so, what time frame?

Thanks for the help.

Chris

Actually you've asked two questions here....

Did Browning make a drilling?? (drilling = 3 bbls.) I don't think they did, but they may have rebadged a few Sauers, or some other brand like Weatherby did..

Did they ever make a combo?? (combo = 2 bbls.) This is more possible, but i don't ever remember seeing or reading about one of these either...

Sorry about that I thought a drilling was synonomous with a combo.

Chris,
To the best of my knowledge, there's never been a Browning Drilling. However, there are both combo (shotgun/rilfe) and double rifle O/U's with theBrowning name, just as there are some similar O/U "Winchesters"..... These were made in the late 1970's & early 1980's.

ein (1), zwei (2), dri (3), vier (4).. there are both Dri-lings (three barrels)and Vier-lings(4 barrels)

Krieghoff also makes a Double Rifle Drilling
