Something a little different - A Springfield Armory Inc, imported CZ made M-6 Survival Rifle. This one is chambered in .22 Hornet and .410 Gauge. It is a commercial copy of the "original" Post-WWII USAF Aircrew Survivor Gun. The top of the Buttstock lifts up to allow stowage of 4 additional .410 rounds and 9 .22 Hornet rounds. In a survival situation it would definitely be better then nothing!

By comparison, in WWII the German Luftwaffe provided their Aircrew with a Drilling, a three barreled Rifle/Shotgun, in a fitted case, with a batch of accessories. If you could find one to buy it would set you back about $12,600 (last one sold at a Rock Island Auction!





J. P. Sauer M30 Drilling - 2 12 Gage barrels, one 9.3x74R mm barrel...



and yes - I would love to have one!
