Uh, Harry, he said it was a 9.3x72 which is an entirely different, older, and much less powerful cartridge. About like .38-55 ballistics and OK for deer at iron sight ranges but certainly not a safari gun.
The shot barrels are probably chambered 65mm (2 9/16") and may run high pressures with modern 2 3/4" shells.
Cute but not good for much. I don't follow prices closely but they seem to go begging in the mid-teens at gun shows around here.
