When I lived in Troy, New York (fairly near the Vermont line) you could get a Wilbur Hauck story out of any gun nut over the age of 60. Some of them may have even been true. Only saw one of his rifles in the flesh, tho.

Whatever you think of his rifles, he deserves a spot in the American Single Shot Rifle Hall of Fame (maybe for just being the guy who swam upstream the fastest against the greatest current....a guy who was ALWAYS 'way ahead of, or 'way behind, the wave of gun fashion!).

Jerry Fisher one time told me that he had a few stocks out there he would really like to buy back. LOL

About a decade back I was told of a Hauck Krag. Made a few inquiries, apparently it exists, but I could not track it.

One of my client had one built by Hauck way back when, as I remember a 12 lb.. .219. I later built him a Low Wall .22lr with the stipulation that it weigh under 6 lbs.

Gents,

I thought some of you might be interested to know that 60 years ago our idol,"Mister Rifleman", wrote regarding the Hauck "In addition to first rate design and workmanship throughout.....".

Good shooting!
