Cape Gun??
I have a what looks to be a very old side by side shotgun/rifle. The only things that I can make out on the barrel are: KABA, 9 m/m, a #72 on the butt plate and what looks to be the number 4 on the right side of the reciever. The Left barrel is a smooth bore and is smaller than a 410 (possibly 36ga?) and the Right barrel is a 22. I am looking for any information possible about this firearm such as maker, model, where it comes from, value, or anything that you can tell me? Thanks in advance!

Just a FYI thing
The 32ga has a .526" bore
The .410bore would be a 68ga
There is a 360 Centerfire (99ga) a 9.1x40mm (101ga), and a 9mm CF (105ga) These were used mainly in Europe .
Than there are the 9mm (105ga) and smaller rimfires (down to the 20cal Wingo, 582ga)
My ref dosn't show a 36ga shotshell.
Is your shot barrel a CF or a RF?
Some guys like a mag full of lead, I still prefer one round to the head.0 -
I forgot to mention that there is the number 509 on the barrel and it is a rimfire. Thanks again 0
