UPDATE:

Glock 26 aka Betsy - I put a new set of Trijicon night sights on her and put finger extensions on the magazines. I just ordered a infidel slide back plate, extended slide lock/release, over travel stop, official Glock dissemble tool and extended magazine release. They should arrive tomorrow.

WOAH! O.O gorgeous, man!

 

[88_Eddie]

antique? or just made to look old?

 

[Tominator]

Those are way too cool!

I almost picked one up a few years ago as it had my sur-name on it as the maker, but sadly decided against it.

Many of these were carried by game wardens or land owners in Europe. They hunted for food and they were no inhibited by licenses or limits. They could shoot squirrels and go deer hunting at the same time.

They were made in many different caliber/bore combinations.

Many were custom made and really expressed what a 'gun smith' was back in the day.

Badass isn't quite the term I would use to describe this gun, it lacks the endearment that this beautiful piece of heritage and history deserves.

It's not quite an antique yet, but it certainly has some age to it.

This is a 1928 German Guild Drillings. Twin 16's over 7,8x57mm.

Pre war there were literally hundreds of cottage gun makers who rarely provided a makers mark on their guns. These unnamed and unmarked guns are referred to as "Guild Guns" for the guild of gun-makers and gunsmiths of Germany. The German Guild guns are high quality guns. The cottage gun makers were supplied with parts from the larger gun manufacturers like Kreighoff, Merkel, Sauer, etc. witch allowed them to produce the same quality guns as the larger manufacturers, and even sometimes a higher quality gun, at 1/3 of the price.

Those are way too cool!

So true.

I almost passed on this one because of the uncommon rifle caliber, but it was too good of a deal and I knew I'd regret it. It was one of three posted for sale on my local gun board, and the other two were from back in 2005 and 2002. This was the first Drillings that I had ever seen in person and it was obtainable. The guy wasn't asking 4 grand for it and there is no way I can afford to buy a new Kreighoff.

I traded a 1995 Winchester Model 94 AE and some gun leather for it.
I think I came out on top with that deal.

Edit: This is the Winchester I traded.

Dad has a Savage 22LR/20ga which is the same idea but with only one shotgun barrel. Effective but ugly and heavy...
