Found this repeating flintlock for sale at joesalter.com $10,500 USD
Smoothbore, three-shot repeater, probably Dutch or German, no maker's name; likely built very early in the eighteenth century. This unusual gun is in excellent condition for its age and is complete and entirely original. It shows fine workmanship and well-executed carving and engraving, including a stand of arms and a beguiling lady attired (partially) in what appears to be Amazonian military garb. The rotating, tri-chambered breech is operated by pushing on the forward part of the triggerguard, thereby unlocking it and allowing the next chamber (each of which has its own frizzen and pan) to be turned into battery. Each chamber could be charged with either an approximately .56-calibre ball or loaded as a 20-gauge shotgun so that its owner could be prepared for any game encountered. Although arms of this type are very rarely seen, we note that one similar piece was sold in recent years at auction at Butterfields in the neighborhood of $12-13,000. A finely-made and interesting piece, made well over a century before the young sailor Sam Colt began to whittle.
