I want a browning a 5 in 20 gauge and I want a pre 64 model 70 in 375HH I have not seen many browning a 5 in 20 gauge and I have only read story's of the model 70 I guess that is why I want one.


Yup we share similar taste :D

What it is is bloody expensive and not doubt bloody heavy with all that metal in the barrels. :lol:

She's a work of art alright, just have a look at the craftsmanship in it, the detail is just exquisite no doubt about it, I could imagine the price of that bad boy! :shock:

I watched a show on some hand-made shotgun place in the UK.

Top quality stuff of course but nothing half as intricate as that, and I think theirs started at about $50k.

Nice line up too.

A .223, two 8x57 and a 20 gauge.

You'd never find yourself wanting with all that ready to go.

I think you would actually need a Cat D license for one stupidly...

Double barrel centrefire limit for cat B, the 3rd centre fire cartridge makes it cat D :(

Beautiful though.

Actually that's the calibers I was thinking, but I need better glasses lol. A friend emailed it to me, couldn't give me much background on it. It apparently was to show of the Holland & Holland Master engravers work, which I why assumed it was a Holland & Holland.

or even these guys http://www.fanzoj.com/en/gunroom/flagship_guns/the_bear_poker/index.html
There are apparently a few makers of multi barrel combos,
I love the name this model, the 'Bear poker', 9.3x74R / 9.3x74R / 12g / 12g..... these guys also do a magnum length Mauser chambering anything from 375H&H.. spend a bit of time looking through ths site, some fantastic works of art.

They are serious works of Art hey, no doubt about it, I bet the bloody things are heavy with all that metal! One could only imagine the cost of the bloody things.
