This Franz Langenhan Kleinkaliberbuchse is a classic early 20th-century German rimfire rifle, reflecting the quality craftsmanship and reliable bolt-action design associated with Zella-Mehlis production. Commonly used for target shooting and small game, these rifles are typically chambered in .22 rimfire or similar cartridges. It features the original diopter sight. The stock has been shortened, giving the rifle a more compact and handy feel with an altered length of pull. This example remains a solid, functional rifle with classic styling, making it a great choice for recreational shooting or as a representative piece of historic European rimfire design.
