Break Action Singles
      17/09/11 11:09 AM

Seeing chapmen's Eckholdt makes me wonder what most folks out there think of break action singles.
I don't own any break action single shot rifles other than rook rifles (that is about to change though - more on that later).

It seems as though higher quality break action singles had a very short heyday, at least as far as those of British make. My guess is that the falling block rifles were less costly to make and maybe a bit more accurate.
Is this assumption correct? Is there a reason why their popularity lived on in Europe? Is it because much of the hunting there is in mountainous terrain and a klipplauf is easier to pack in the field?

He who lives in the past is doomed to enjoy it.
