Seems to be quite light for a triple.

If you went to GB and looked it up, you know as much about it as I do........here is Mathelon's site.....unfortunately the "English" link doesn't appear to work so it is in French, and, as far as I can tell, there are no prices listed. However, it looks like a quality operation. their site

Ken:

That's interesting. Can you import a Manurhin M73 revolver?

The most obvious question about the Mathelon drilling is, how accurately are the 3 barrels regulated? What kind of 3 shot (one each barrel) groups can you expect at 50/100m?

Yes! Inquiring minds want to know. And how much?

They are regulated for the Norma 286gr ORYX bullet, to shoot all 3 barrels within 6cm (2.3") at 50 meters.

Here is a discussion from last year.

Of course, for birds you'll need a shotgun, such as this triple 12 at Bonhams.

Gatogordo, the 12 above is at Bonhams July 29th, Lot 294:
link

A fine and rare Green patent 12-bore (2¾in) single-trigger three-barrelled boxlock ejector gun by Edwinson Green & Sons, no. 6748A

Thanks for the link. I actually had glanced thru that auction but was mostly looking for interesting engraving patterns and missed this lot.

While I don't have that kind of spare cash right now, I've kind of wanted one of those, meaning a 3 or 4 barreled shotgun, for a while. However, I wouldn't buy that one due to the thin walled barrels.
