<p>A <b>combination gun</b> is a <a href="Firearm" title="Firearm">firearm</a> that usually comprises at least one <a href="Rifling" title="Rifling">rifled</a> barrel and one <a href="Smoothbore" title="Smoothbore">smoothbore</a> barrel, that is typically used with <a href="Shot_(pellet)" title="Shot (pellet)">shot</a> or some type of <a href="Shotgun_slug" title="Shotgun slug">shotgun slug</a>. Most have been <a href="Break-action" class="mw-redirect" title="Break-action">break-action</a> guns, although there have been other designs as well. Combination guns using one rifled and one smoothbore barrel are commonly found in an over-and-under configuration, while the side-by-side configuration is usually referred to as a <b>cape gun</b>.
A combination gun with more than two barrels is called a <b><span title="German-language text"><i lang="de">drilling</i></span></b> (German for "triplet") with three barrels, a <b><span title="German-language text"><i lang="de">vierling</i></span></b> (German for "quadruplet") with four barrels, and a <b><span title="German-language text"><i lang="de">fünfling</i></span></b> (German for "quintuplet") with five barrels.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Combination guns generally use rimmed cartridges, as rimless cartridges are usually more difficult to extract from a break-action firearm.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Use">Use</h2></div>
<p>Combination guns have a long history in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa that date back to the early days of metallic cartridge firearms. These guns are almost exclusively hunting arms. The advantage of having a single firearm that can fire both cartridges designed for rifled and smoothbore barrels is that a single gun can be used to hunt a very wide variety of <a href="Game_(food)" class="mw-redirect" title="Game (food)">game</a>, from <a href="Deer" title="Deer">deer</a> to game birds, and the shooter can choose the barrel appropriate for the target in seconds. As a result, they are popular with <a href="Gamekeeper" class="mw-redirect" title="Gamekeeper">gamekeepers</a> who often need the flexibility of the combination gun during their activities.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Firing_mechanisms">Firing mechanisms</h2></div>
<p>The earliest combination guns were called <i>swivel guns</i>, (not to be confused with the more widely known small cannon that is mounted on a swiveling stand or fork and allows a wide range of motion) which used a set of barrels designed to rotate to allow either the <a href="Rifled" class="mw-redirect" title="Rifled">rifled</a> or the <a href="Smoothbore" title="Smoothbore">smoothbore</a> barrel to line up with a <a href="Flintlock" title="Flintlock">flintlock</a> mechanism before firing.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Modern combination guns tend to resemble <a href="Double-barreled_shotgun" title="Double-barreled shotgun">double-barreled shotguns</a> and <a href="Double-barreled_rifle" class="mw-redirect" title="Double-barreled rifle">double-barreled rifles</a>, and are almost universally <a href="Break_open" class="mw-redirect" title="Break open">break open</a> designs. Combination guns generally have a selector that allows the user to choose which barrel will fire. Three-barrel versions known as Drillings, are commonly found with two shotgun barrels and one rifle barrel, and generally have two triggers, one for each shotgun barrel, and a selector that will allow one trigger to fire the rifle barrel. Four-barrel versions known as Vierlings generally have two triggers, and selectors to switch between both the shotgun and rifle barrels.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Layouts">Layouts</h2></div>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Combination_guns">Combination guns</h3></div>
<p>Combination guns are over/under designs such as the <a href="Savage_Model_24" title="Savage Model 24">Savage Model 24</a>, usually with a rifled barrel over a smoothbore barrel. <a href="Iron_sights" title="Iron sights">Iron sights</a> are commonly used for aiming the rifle, and the front sight alone is sufficient to point the shotgun. <a href="Scope_mount" title="Scope mount">Scope mounts</a> are available for some designs.
</p><p>An interesting combination gun is the <a href="United_States_Air_Force" title="United States Air Force">United States Air Force</a> <a href="M6_Aircrew_Survival_Weapon" class="mw-redirect" title="M6 Aircrew Survival Weapon">M6 Aircrew Survival Weapon</a> and its civilian version, the <a href="Springfield_Armory_M6_Scout" title="Springfield Armory M6 Scout">Springfield Armory M6 Scout</a>, an all-metal folding combination gun in <a href=".22_Hornet" title=".22 Hornet">.22 Hornet</a> over <a href=".410_bore" title=".410 bore">.410 bore</a> or <a href=".22_Long_Rifle" class="mw-redirect" title=".22 Long Rifle">.22 Long Rifle</a> over <a href=".410_bore" title=".410 bore">.410 bore</a>.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Cape_guns">Cape guns</h3></div>
<p>A cape gun is a side-by-side version of a combination gun and is typically European in origin. These were at one time popular in <a href="Southern_Africa" title="Southern Africa">Southern Africa</a>, where a wide variety of game could be encountered. British versions are commonly chambered for the <a href=".303_British" title=".303 British">.303 British</a> service cartridge and a 12-gauge smoothbore barrel, with the rifled barrel positioned on the left. The German and Austrian cape guns have the rifled barrel on the right side, which is fired by the front trigger. The front trigger is usually a <a href="Trigger_(firearms)#Set_trigger" title="Trigger (firearms)">set trigger</a> as well. The German and Austrian versions are commonly chambered for 9.3×72mmR or <a href="9.3%C3%9774mmR" title="9.3×74mmR">9.3×74mmR</a> rifle cartridges and 16-gauge or 12-gauge <a href="Shotshell" class="mw-redirect" title="Shotshell">shotshells</a>, as they were commonly carried by the old <a href="Gamekeeper" class="mw-redirect" title="Gamekeeper">gamekeepers</a>, although they were usually chambered in a much wider variety of available rifle and shotgun cartridges.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Drillings">Drillings</h3></div>
<p>Drillings ("drilling" being German for "triplet") normally consist of two matching smoothbore barrels and a rifled barrel (<a href="German_language" title="German language">German</a>: <i lang="de">Normaldrilling</i>, common drilling), but may cover a much broader range of shapes and configurations.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Since drillings were generally made by small manufacturers, each maker would pick whichever layout they preferred, or whatever layout the customer ordered. The most common layout was a side-by-side shotgun with a centerfire rifled barrel centered on the bottom, such as the <a href="M30_Luftwaffe_Drilling" title="M30 Luftwaffe Drilling">M30 Luftwaffe Drilling</a>. A similar arrangement of a side-by-side shotgun with a rifled barrel centered on top, generally a .22 <a href="Rimfire_ammunition" title="Rimfire ammunition">rimfire</a> caliber or .22 Hornet, was also fairly common.
</p><p>Rarer were the drillings that used two rifled barrels and a single smoothbore barrel. These were harder to make, since, like a double-barreled rifle, the rifled barrels must be very carefully <i>regulated</i>, that is, aligned during manufacture to shoot to the same point of aim at a given distance. This requires more precision than regulation of double-barreled shotgun barrels, which are used at shorter ranges with wide patterns of shot where a small misalignment won't be significant. If the rifled barrels were the same caliber, then the three barrels were generally arranged in a triangle, both rifled barrels on top or one rifled and the smoothbore barrel on top (this being known as a <i>cross-eyed drilling</i>). If the rifled barrels differed in caliber, generally the layout would be an over/under using the shotgun and a centerfire rifle barrel, with a rimfire rifle barrel mounted between and to one side. These configurations, with shotgun/centerfire/rimfire barrels, are the most desirable configuration for modern collectors.
</p><p>The triple-barrel shotgun is the rarest configuration, and arguably is an odd variant of a double-barreled shotgun rather than a drilling since it lacks the rifle/shotgun combination that all the other drillings have. The triple-barrel shotgun is generally laid out like a side-by-side shotgun, with the third barrel centered and below the other two. Although, the <a href="Chiappa_Triple_Crown" title="Chiappa Triple Crown">Chiappa Triple Crown</a> has a triangular arrangement with one on top and two below. This gives the Triple Crown a single-barrel sight picture. The barrels are all the same <a href="Gauge_(bore_diameter)" class="mw-redirect" title="Gauge (bore diameter)">gauge</a>.
</p><p>An unusual but notable drilling is the <a href="TP-82" title="TP-82">TP-82</a>, a short-barreled drilling pistol consisting of two 12.5x70mm (40-gauge) smoothbore shotgun barrels over a <a href="5.45x39mm" class="mw-redirect" title="5.45x39mm">5.45x39mm</a> rifle barrel with a detachable shoulder stock that also doubled as a <a href="Machete" title="Machete">machete</a>. It was developed by the <a href="Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a> as a survival gun for their <a href="Astronaut#Cosmonaut" title="Astronaut">cosmonauts</a>, and was in use from 1986 to 2006, when it was retired because the unique ammunition it uses had degraded too far to be reliable.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Vierlings">Vierlings</h3></div>
<p>Vierlings ("vierling" being German for "quadruplet") generally consist of two matching smoothbore shotgun barrels, a <a href=".22_caliber" title=".22 caliber">.22 rimfire</a> rifled barrel, and a centerfire rifled barrel. Although, they can come in a variety of configurations. Vierlings are quite rare and are almost always custom-made for the high-end commercial market. One example was the four-barreled <a href="Lancaster_carbine" class="mw-redirect" title="Lancaster carbine">Lancaster carbine</a>, originally designed for the <a href="Maharajah_of_Rewa" class="mw-redirect" title="Maharajah of Rewa">Maharajah of Rewa</a> for hunting <a href="Tiger" title="Tiger">tigers</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Fünflings">Fünflings</h3></div>
<p>Fünfling ("fünfling" being German for "quintuplet"), is an extremely rare type of combination gun because of its greater complexity of joining a compilation of five separate smoothbore and rifled barrels together within a single firearm design. Some of these layouts include a single smoothbore shotgun barrel on top of two rifle barrel calibers in a side-by-side and over-and-under configuration or two smoothbore shotgun barrels in a side-by-side configuration with three rifle barrel calibers between them that are stacked vertically in an over-and-under configuration.
