Elvis Presley’s rifle

[Mike53]

Can anyone identify the rifle Elvis is holding? It appear to be of Austrian origin.

Some sort of black powder rifle?

 

[K-man]

What I can tell for sure is it has twin triggers and appears to be a drilling. So probably European.

 

[mark-hunter]

European combination gun would be my guess, with German claw mounts.

 

[mooze]

Hahndrilling with long sideplates, old even in the 50s.

 

[mark-hunter]

Elvis was fan of python revolvers.
He loved giving pythons for present to his friends.

He probably picked it up when he was stationed in the armored units in Germany . A Hahn drilling. Stock carvings look Bavarian style and the schutzen style trigger guard also
