I have inherited a 16 bore Christoph Funk flintendrilling, all three barrels being 16 bore. Was wondering if anyone could tell me an approximate value. It is in excellent condition, choke tubes have been changed but I still have originals.

Don't worry about the value. Your Daddy loved that gun and it was one of your Grandfather's most prized possessions. Never never ever sell it...Geo

The last three barrel shotgun drilling I saw on gunbroker was a really nice Collath which Is my personal favorite. It sold for ~ $4500.00.

As mentioned above, I wouldn't sell it. Aside from it being a family piece, they are truly a work of a real craftsman and are not come across. Would you post a pic?

Thanks,

Kc

Interesting noses, reminiscent of Nimrod or Baumgarten's idol Brenneke?

Mr. Stevison of Mississippi notes Mr. Lund's Funk text is worth the expense so you might want to consider it.

Indeed it did. It was found fully intact in WW2 by my granfather in Germany, and was brought back as a trophy of war.
