I got one with three barrels, 22lr, 300 Whisper, and 357/44 Baine and Davis. It was a pistol configuration when I bought it, and the old guy I bought it from had some trigger work done on it, it is about as nice a trigger as I have ever shot, and that 357/44 B&D in particular was a tack driver. That barrel was actually a 16", so I ended up buying and folding butt stock for it and have used it as a loaner gun to offer to clients. Folds up and fits in a small backpack, no need to drag their fancy, long, magnum rifle through the brush and deep snow. Had a coouple clients shoot cougars with it. Personally I preferred it in the pistol configuration, and I've shot a coyote with it at close to 200 as a pistol, but handing it to someone to shoot a critter out of a tree, the rifle is much better. Plus it is a single shot, so I never have to worry about a clients wild followup shots or over excited accidents, while I am trying to deal with a wounded critter.
