I have a Single Shot Poporri, and am thinking I need the rest.

Does anyone know how many there are?

I am primarily interested in Heeren, Hagn, Miller and other falling blocks.

I am also interested in Swiss Martinis, kiplaufs (break open) and Fraser guns.

Any other books I ought to own?

Awesome!

I ordered a few more. I want to order Mr. Single Shot book of rifle plans, but the only copy I can find for sale is $320.

Don't overlook "The Breech-loading Single Shot Rifle" by Ned Roberts. Not a treatise on the technical design, but wonderful ruminations on performance in the field and in competition by America's greatest rifle crank.


There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.

This is what I ended up with on this order:

Mueller, BUILDING A SINGLE SHOT FALLING BLOCK

GRANT, STILL MORE SINGLE SHOT RIFLES

DE HAAS, SINGLE SHOT RIFLES AND ACTIONS

I also ordered the Rifles special on single shots. Hopefully it isn't fully written by Wieland.
