Pieper .32 rimfire..?

[frichtie]

Hello all,

I've had this little single shot rifle for a while now, and have always wanted to know more about it.

It looks a lot like a Remington rolling-block. Marked on the left side: -FL8M.1.L- H.PIEPER BELGIUM

Barrel length: 23''. It is a rimfire, but not a .22. (I suppose it's a .32 rimfire) Octogonal barrel.

How "rare" is it?, what's its value...?

Sorry, can't figure out how to post pics...

I had one a few years ago, consigned it to an local auction and took a bath on it. They are not rare, a few of them around. The 'H' stands for Henri I think it is [Henri Pieper]. Value dpends on condition as always but probably 200-300 if in decent working condition.
