I don't know the model but a discussion on reddit concluded the ammo to be the following.
The bottom shell is a 20 gauge shotgun shell. The two in the middle are 8x57 JRS shells. The one on the top is .22 Hornet.

Okay, several Russian sites state that to be "An Old German Gun", however I cannot find a page with it actually on.
However, I have found 2 gunsmiths with similar guns.

Its a german high price huntig rifle/ shotgun.
Vierling = four barrels
Drilling = three barrels
In good old days in Germany there were legal restrictions on how many weapons you could own. Vierling or drilling is nice legal way to avoid those restrictions. After all you have shotgun, small- and large caliber rifle in same gun.
Those restrictions are long gone, but drillings are still weapon of choice (in Finland at least)to some hunters, who have nostalgic ideas about wild boar hunting in East Prussia (and have extra cash- those guns are quite expensive).:)

I thinking thses types are called over under guns or muilt barrel slide lock
Guns that decorated and of that type are usually hunting/ceremonial guns. Chiappa just released a triple barrel shotgun Chiappa Triple Threat at the Range: http://youtu.be/Yt0664xSKUo
