Antonio Zoli combination
      #83603 - 06/08/07 10:48 PM

Probably the right place to ask is my local gun dealer, but here goes:
Antonio Zoli makes both shotguns & combination guns. Is it possible on a standard shotgun to simply change the barrels to shotgun/rifle combination?
Or will some gunshmithing be needed, or is this, indeed, altogether impossible?

When looking at the website I noticed that on the combination gun there is a cocking lever, but as I see it, there is really no need for this as such.
Certainly the Valmet 412S (later Tikka 512S, nowadays Finnclassic) didn't have a cocking piece, it was just to swap the barrels. However, given that Valmet specifically advertised it and no-one else has mentioned it, it occurred to me whether such a barrel swap on the other makes is at all possible.

Even the Valmets needed to have the bbls properly "fitted" to the action the first time around... You can't just buy a bbl set and put it on any action...
