Who sells combo guns?

Your Baikal should be one of the ones that has the seperated, non-soldered barrels and most of the Baikals I have seen have an adjustment rig right before the fore end starts that should allow you to get the shotgun barrel with shot or slugs to shoot pretty close to the same point of impact as the rifle at both 50 and 100 yards (slug) using the iron sights. The Baikals are one of the few relatively inexpensive combis that are well enough designed to be a truly viable lower cost option. The Savages, Valmets etc were almost all soldered barrels and the regulation of them cannot be adjusted.

Good to know... It actually wasn't mine... I borrowed it when I was up in timmins from brother in law... I really enjoyed using it.. And I had seen the 410 22lr combo before but this was the first I had seen the 20 gauge 22lr combo... I am looking to buy one and your info is a plus... Thanks

The older BRNO combo's expressed in there manual that slugs were not to be used in these guns(BRNO 300 series as well as the BRNO 500 series). What model is yours that you can shoot slugs out of if I may ask? I don't know if it would hurt my barrel on either combo of mine, but I will not take the chance as I could not replace either of them. cheers Dale Z!

maybe due to the fixed choke?

Combination guns are frustrating until you spend a lot of money. I have owned several made by Savage, A springfield scout, a Valmet-Savage, a Valmet, and a Brno. All of the Savage made guns had problems with function and regulation. The Valmet guns functioned better but were very poor to handle an they did not fit me well. They were clumsy to use with rimless rifle cartridges.
I now own a Heym in 16 ga. over .222, and a Merkel in 16 ga. over 7x57R. They work reliably and are very accurate, they fit me and feel wonderful to handle. But they cost about four to six times what the others do. It requires fine engineering and hand craftsmanship to make a combination gun that works well. You really do get what you pay for.

What did you think of the BRNO combo gun? I am planning to get one shortly...cost is about $500 used.

I have one, as pictured in post #2. Actually this is the second one as I foolishly sold the 1st. Depending of course on the shape/condition, but at $500.oo, I'd say the price is right.

There are several models of Brno combination guns, from two different manufacturers in the same city. I had one with the shotgun barrel on top, the other design from the "other" manufacturer had the shotgun under. Both are well built, but mine was the Brno model 3, heavier and less trim of the two types. Sorry I don't know the model number of the other one right off hand, I believe it is what J Peterson owns.
I liked the solid no-nonsense design, and the function was reliable with a rimmed rifle cartridge. (I would not suggest that you buy one for a rimless rifle cartridge, unless you choose only to hunt without gloves on!) The clubby handling was the only issue. If you get one that you like the feel of, you will have a very good value at that price.

Zoli combination

I found a Zoli 12/3006 last year. The rifle is on the botton and has regulation for horizontal and verticle. The front regulator is fragile though and someone had broken the dovetail that is used to regulate. I had a professional repair done to it by a talented machinist involving making a double barrel clamp that traps both barrels. Looks like it was made as part of the firearm. It is a good shooter for hunting but I would not recommend it for target shooting, about 5inch groups at 100yds with iron sights and glasses.
