I have had this jewel for a few years, but thought I would share one of my prized pieces.  I looked for 20 plus years for a W.R.F. single shot, not knowing that there were only 662 known to be produced.  It took three Reno gun shows to get enough saved up to finally purchase the gun.  It was priced high enough that apparently, only the seller and I thought it was worth the price.

Definitely a jewel.  Given the low number of 22 WRFs manufactured, very few, if any, can have this high of condition.  A beautiful rifle.
