H&R Topper 157 and 158's?

[Fortkevin2]

Hi guys,
I have an offer from a guy that would like to sell me two H&R's One is an 157 30-30 with Mannilicher style stock. The second is a 158 in 22 Hornet. It has a lighter colored stock (birch? Maple?)

After shipping and FFL I would have right at $500 in both. Are these sought after or not? I already have a shortie 30-30 so wouldn't really need the 30-30 barrel but I do think the stock would be cool. Anything you could tell me about these would be great. If you have any pictures of them that would be great also. As always thanks!

I don't have a 157, but I have some pics.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping that was a walnut stock that came with either of the guns but it doesn't look like they do

There's a local 158 in 12ga being offered for $150 or OBO. It appears to be in excellent condition. Hope this info helps.


Thanks, Dinny
