Please Help with Any Info

I do not own any drilling at this time but have always found them relly interesting and will have one...soon. Today I was in a shop here in South Texas and found one, sorry I did not take any pics, but I will next time I go there. It looked to be double 16 guage over a 9x57r and the barrels were marked Prima Krupscher Fluszstahl. It was a beautiful gun with a pretty hefty price tag...for me, $4900. I could get over the price if it was worth the money. The shotgun barrels were a blue/brown and the rifle barrel was more of a brown. The reciever was silver in color (lots of scroll work)with a top barrel opener and a bar that projects out the side on opening and has to be pushed back in to lock the barrels closed. Behind the top opener is a barrel selector, shotgun to rifle, which also raises and lowers the rear rifle sight. As you can tell, I dont know a whole bunch about drillings, so be gentle. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Brandon,

The best thing to do is to get pictures of the underside of the barrels where all the proof marks are located.  The proof marks will tell you the most about the gun.
