How many of you folks have heard of a Wurfflein? (32-40)
Mine is the only one I have encountered.,

I never have, so I did a search and found some links. Here's one with pics. http://www.pbase.com/halp/wurfflein_rifle Looks like a nice piece.

Check out the books by Frank DeHaas, he has several write ups.

Good looking rifle. I've also heard of them. I believe I read of them in "The Single Shot Exchange" Great periodical for single shots. I really like the European built break opens. They seem to have more class, (NO INSULT INTENDED) than the current American ones. Although the Savage 219s were/are just as nice as the European ones.

Wurfflein was a US gun company. Philadelphia built IIRC.

Yup, that's where I saw them. Also in Grant's books.
