Pieper Henri The Pieper Rifle 44-40WCF

Henri Pieper was making falling block Peabody-Martini type action, single-shot rifles in Liege, Belgium in several calibers like 22 WCF, 32 WCF, 44 WCF, or 38-40. However, the 32 WCF and 44 WCF represent Henri Pieper's attempt to capture a wider export market. British colonies like Australia were already importing Winchester rifles. Win '92s were common in Australia so it was sensible to be chambering his rifles in cartridges that colonials would use. Perhaps he even had hopes of gaining a small foothold in the US market. The Pieper Rifles were made with an octagonal or round barrel. Henri Pieper will die on August 23, 1898, at 57 years of age.
