chattius 2,533 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 rifle -> Drilling Zwillinge are twins, Drillinge are triplets. It is a gun with 3 three barrels of at least two different calibres so a hunter/ranger is prepared to each situation. My oldest one is nearly 70 years old and was given to me by the widow of a former hunter. She had no weapon license and the weapons of her husband would have to be destroyed. A modern one without the gravures of hunting scenes older ones typical had. My oldest is more like a double barrel break action shotgun with a additional mauser calibre barrel for deers. It allowed to insert another 'deer' barrel into one of the shotgun barrels. 1 Link to comment

Hooyaah 2,827 Posted May 31, 2021 Author Share Posted May 31, 2021 Yellow Rose of Texas => Texas Rose Festival Famous for its roses, Tyler's Annual Rose Festival is in October! This song was very popular during the American Civil War; my great, great grandfather, a hero of this odious conflict, doubtlessly sang this song on long marches. Perhaps, someday I will recount some tales of his valor under heavy enemy fire and cannonading. 1 Link to comment
