Rock Island Auction Company is the world's leading auction house for firearms, edged weapons and military artifacts, with more than $282 million in sales in the past nine years. At the 2014 NRA show in Indianapolis, Ind., NRA members were able to get a glimpse of what are considered "the crown jewels" of the Premiere Auction slated for May 2-4. Known as the "Holland Triplets"-three consecutively numbered, deluxe, cased Holland & Holland double rifles in .375 H&H Magnum, 300 H&H Magnum, & 7mm Magnum-each feature delicate English scroll engraving, gold inlays, and come with their own spare set of sidelocks that are also all hand engraved and numbered to match the originals.rock_island_special
