Chiappa have released a 3 barrel shotgun. It is an old idea but it will be a shock to some who have never seen such before. I am going to sacrifice a lettuce in hope they will release a 10 bore version.

Trying to track some photos down now as I know,

Hmm... I do like the look of that, it is certainly different.

Only one? I remember a CLA eons ago there was a gun maker called Somerton (I think) who made a 26" barrelled box lock in 10 gauge which I so wanted. My dad persuaded that feeding it would be a problem. When I see this 3 barrel gun I get that same must have feeling.

Ok ok ok... a matched pair would be awesome!

I do quite fancy a 10 gauge... not really sure what I would use it for, other than getting it out of the cabinet and going 'oooh' at once in a while!

Rifle the barrels, stick a long Unertl brass scope on it, and stock it up to the muzzle and i'll take eight, and by "eight", I mean "one".
