Let the Handi obsession begin!
« on: December 16, 2007, 01:17:53 AM »
I made the mistake of taking my kids to a different, brand-new Sportsman's Warehouse this evening to "look around". I was actually looking for an 1885 High Wall for myself when I ran SMACK INTO a just-opened box that contained an SB2-SY5. That translates into a brand-new Handi Superlight Youth model in .243 Winchester! When my daughter thought that this little rifle fit her just fine it was sold within a second. It just got topped with a Bushnell Trophy Holosight and we're going to head out to the range to do a little sighting in. I'll take a few pictures of the setup and, hopefully, of some center-punched targets in the morning.

Cheers!

yep, thats just how it begins. before long you'll be buying another,then getting barrels fitted, swaping stocks and then you'll realize that your a Handi-holic.
 then you start making a room for your hand's, buying extra safes and getting handi logo caps and shirts, it all over.

;D .. ;D
