Langenhan rifle

Print Post  
Hello,
Does anyone know anything about the German Langenhan .22 rifle?  All I know is what is in Rifles of the World: made between WW1 & WW2 in Zella-Mehlis.  May be marked FL or FLZ, estimated production several thousand.  Are these rifles discussed in any of the English language books on German rifles?  I would be interested in any information, but I am particularly looking for an action drawing or patent number.
Thanks

Do not know anything about said rifle other than the fact that deHass discusses it and shows a side view drawing and a photograph of parts (as in "Single shot Rifles") in "Single Shot Actions - Their Design and Construction" on pages 40 - 42 and 46 and 47.

Apparently the reciever is made by sandwiching a spacer between plates and is riveted together.

If you cannot find this book, I could copy the pages for you.

Bill

I typically have good luck searching ABEBooks.com for used gun books...
You can also set a "want" list, and get emailed when a title turns up.

Hope this helps!

I would like to publicly thank Warkshop for taking the time to scan several pages from an out of print book and send them to me to answer my question.  This is the sort of action which makes this forum and the ASSRA a fine thing.  Thanks!
