« on: April 08, 2007, 10:30:12 AM »
hello, does any one know if you can interchange a 20g frame with a 12g barrel? and what kind of mods do you have to do to fit rifle barrels to a shot gun frame, or can you?? thanks pooter1001.

SB1 20ga shotgun frames will accept all shotgun barrels except 10ga shotgun and 12ga slug barrels. Rifle barrels need to be used on SB2 rifle frames. Read the accessory barrel info at H&R's web site.

Please see "Can I put a rifle barrel on a shotgun frame?" in the NEF/H&R Centerfire forum FAQs and Help sticky.
