Another question/ receiver strength /Handi vs Pardner
« on: May 20, 2005, 05:55:57 AM »
I heard a long time ago that the Pardner receiver is not as strong as the Handi....that 'they will interchange'...but that it should not be done except that a shotgun barrel can be used on a Handi receiver.  Could someone fill me in a little better.  Are they in fact different steel or something?
....make it count

Not as high a tensile strength steel...and different heat treatments for the sb-1's built now...and from what I've been told...the older models from H&R are even weaker...
