emil martin dbl barrel w/ 9.9 mm rifle
I recently came across an interesting combination shotgun that a fellow offered to me for sale. It is a a 16 gauge double barrel with a 9.3 mm rifle underneath. I have never seen one of these before. the other marking on it is "Krupp-Esse" on the barrel. It is heavily engraved with deer etc. the overall condition is very nice. the bluing is sbout 90% and the stock has had no visible repairs. Any info about this gun would be appreciated. I don't know what the value might be or what a fair price to pay for this gun is.
Thank you

The firearm you describe is commonly known as a "Drilling". It is has been made and used in central Europe, since the late 19th Century.
The gauges ( 16 ) and caliber ( 9.3mm ) you describe were very commonly used. ( There are a number of different 9.3mm cartridges, you have to have a chamber cast done to find out which one)
Some of these Drillings are quite valuable, post your questions to this forum. Somebody might have specific knowledge about your Drilling and it's maker.
