About
What it is, and why it matters
The Blaser BD14 is a premium German Bockdrilling, a three-barrel break-action combination gun for hunting that pairs a 20-gauge shotgun barrel with a large-caliber rifle barrel (commonly .308 Winchester) and a small-caliber rifle barrel (such as .22 Hornet). Unveiled at the 2014 IWA trade show, it uses a patented vertical-block double-lock action, free-floating thermally stable rifle barrels, and a manual hand-cocking system, letting a single hunter switch between shot, big-game and varmint roles in the field.
Introduced at IWA 2014, the BD14 was Blaser's take on the classic German drilling: hunters can chamber a shotshell for driven birds, a full-power rifle round for big game, and a small varmint cartridge, then swap roles instantly by thumbing the tang selector between the double triggers.
Barrel arrangement places the shotgun tube on top, the primary large-caliber rifle barrel directly beneath, and the small-bore rifle barrel to the side; rifle chamberings range from .22 Hornet-class up to 9.3x74R.
