Yes there is a direct link to Mr. Hollenbeck. Hollenbeck starte the Hollenbeck gun company in 1901, as I understand it, it went bankrupt in 1905 and was puchased by a group who opened it that same year as the Three Barrel Gun Company and it operated until 1908 when it also fell on hard times and was sold to another group who renamed the company the Royal Gun Company. In 1910 the Royal Gun Company went out of business and never reopenned. In 1947ish the property was sold for back taxes.. From what I can find there were only 2,000 Drillings made by the Three Barrel Gun Company during their short history, the majority of these were with Damascus shotgun barrels with only about a 25% of them having fluid steel barrels as this one does..

There are side ribs from the shot gun barrels to rifle barrel to hold it in place. It is assembled like other double barrel guns of the time period with solder.

Thanks All for the kind wordss... I have picked up some 2 1/2" 12 Ga shells from RST, starting to load up some more 32/40 and now if the weather would cooperate so I could get out and do some serious shooting it would be great....
