Hornet is home!
« on: March 26, 2010, 12:07:27 PM »
Now I just have to wait for some time to shoot it!

barrel seems alot skinnier than the other standard contour barrels that ive seen, and im pretty sure I dont have a ultra light, im sure it would say on it, Ill find out eventually cause I guess they pack em in saw dust before they put em in the box, and I have to clean the heck out of it just to read the rest of the lettering  ;)

It was also a new illion made rifle as well.

at any rate, im a happy camper.  ;D

Now to find some glass, because the open sites kinda suck!  :D

Congrats!! The Superlight(not Ultra light) barrel isn't marked as such, just Handi-Rifle, but it's real easy to tell since they're only 20" long.  ;)

Thanks, just wanted to confirm that Gardner never discontinued them as they once said they would.  ;) What's the serial number prefix?
