I wasn't sure if I should post this under rifles or shotguns.
I was in one of my local shops last week, and the owner brought this out from the back (they know I like unusual and/or small caliber stuff). It is a .22LR/.410 combo take-down "survival" gun in stainless steel. Needless to say I brought it home. It is a neat little piece. Once I have the CIL/Anschutz back together, and my workspace is clear, I'll take a few pictures and post them up.

Interesting. Can't wait to see what your combo looks like. How it was done.

Here's 1/2 of it, lol. I have it apart to wrap the barrels with some paracord I have laying around...that .410 barrel gets a little toasty on the hands.

Love the mechanicals. Can hardly wait to see it altogether.

It's a pretty simple gun...not much to it. Here's a couple assembled pics...

It uses a flip-up peep sight for the .22

The peep flips down to reveal a notch for sighting the .410. The thumbwheel on the hammer is the selector. Up for .22, down for .410 and in the middle with a twist for safe and locked.

There is storage in the butt stock for 15 rounds of .22lr and four 3" .410 shells.

Pull the pin, take it apart, and throw it in a backpack...
