Anyone else notice that Barrel Prices went

[myarmor]

Just wondering. From last years to this years list on the website. Not much of an increase, $3-10 or so.

Thanks QD2,

Do you know approx how much the 7.62X39 bbl should cost?  


Thanks again!

[quickdtoo]

Sorry, forgot that important spec!! :oops:  It was $77 in the 2005 acc pamphlet, but all the barrels that were $77 are now $85, so I think it would be a safe assumption that it's $85 now. :cry:

$77 >> $85 ............. oh well!






Otherwise, kewl.

I was told that the 7.62 x 39 barrel has been taken off the accessory list due to complaints that some guns misfire with military ammunition. H&R is looking at a fix but there is nothing promising. In other words, if you have one, you better hang onto it.

Told by whom?

When I inquired at the factory, that was what I was told.

[quickdtoo]

Well, I emailed Gordon about it, this is his reply...

I have a few at this time but we may take it off the market for a while
because people keep trying to use foreign and military ammo in them and they
are not made for that you must use factory ammo to function properly.

Tim

[TimL]

His answer is not that far from what I was told.

I wish H&R would chamber these .310 bore barrels to 7.62x54R much more practicle chambering and ammo still much cheaper than 308 or 30-06, and to failure to ignite problem from those rechambered from 7.63x39, AND it has a rim so perfect for a single shot IMVHO.
