Revision as of 08:27, 29 October 2017
How does one fire the rifle part? I don't see a third trigger anywhere. Or does one of them fire the rifle barrel while the other fires both shotgun barrels? - User: 2wingo
- By the power of google:
- "To fire the rifle barrel, you must push the sliding catch on the tang directly in back of the breech-opening lever-forward. So doing both raises the 100-meter open V-notch rear sight blade and engages the forward trigger, which is used to fire the rifle barrel, centered under the side-by-side shotgun barrels."
- "This front trigger is a European "single-set" type, which is activated by sliding the trigger manually forward until it audibly clicks into the set mode. The rear trigger is a standard type and fires the left barrel, which is choked to fire Brenneke slugs to the rifle sight's 100-meter point-of-aim."
- "Sliding the rifle's selector catch rearward both lowers the rifle's rear sight and permits the front trigger to fire the right shotgun barrel. It is thus theoretically possible to fire three shots without opening the breech or lowering the drilling from the shoulder."
- Basically in the standard WW2 German method of creating a technical marvel to do something that didn't really need doing. Evil Tim (talk) 03:44, 30 November 2012 (EST)
