Combination guns generally have a selector that allows the user to choose which barrel will fire. Three-barrel versions known as Drillings, are commonly found with two shotgun barrels and one rifle barrel, and generally have two triggers, one for each shotgun barrel, and a selector that will allow one trigger to fire the rifle barrel.
Gun barrels are far longer than their inside diameter; as an example, the .223 inches (5.7 mm) caliber barrel of the M16 rifle is 20 inches (510 mm) long, nearly 90 times the diameter of the bore. The gun drill was developed to drill such long, straight holes. Gun drilling is possible over a range of depths and diameters.
