My NEW TOY
« on: March 10, 2004, 02:01:18 PM »
:D  :D  :D  Hi all, well if you all remember i missed out on a nice NEF shotgun, well i have been kinda bummed about it, well today the guy at the shop where it was called me, he said he had just gotten a trade he thought i might want. well after hearing all about the H&R TAMER he had just taken in, he droppped the bomb on me, it has a 12ga DEER barrel, and a black wood forarms on the 12ga barrel. well this i had to see for myself, so in my van i jumped, and away i went. well i found a tamer that looks new, with a factory fitted 12ga SMOOTHBORE DEER barrel, and yes a black wood forearm.  it was love at first sight, now i am not sure what i was going to do with it, but for $120  out the door she came home with me :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  now i just got to find something to do with it Hmmmmm...................... i got it,  :twisted:  :twisted: "H&R 410 TAMER GOOD FOR ALL GAME FRON MOUSE TO GROUSE" and with the 12ga barrel "12Ga H&R TAMER GOOD FOR ALL GAME FROM squirrel TO SWAMPDONKEY"  :twisted:  :twisted: LOL :)  :)  :)  :)  :)  :)  :)

And for all you southern boys a "SWAMPDONKEY" is a nickname for a moose.

VC... Sounds like you have yourself a nifty short range woods gun. Good luck to you with it.  How long is that 12ga barrel and is it equipped with iron sites or is it drilled & tapped for a scope rail?

Congrats on your find...Sounds like a neat little gun.  I am trying to visualize it though.  Does the receiver have the nickel finish and the thumbhole/pistol grip stock?  Glad to hear that you finally found a smooth bore deer barrel so you can shoot those cheaper foster style slugs.  I wouldn't mind finding one of those for target shooting or hunting in the ultra thick stuff.

it does still have the tamer pistol grip stock on it, i am thinking about maybe swapping it, but i am not sure yet. the slug barrel is the same thing that came on the tracker1 slug gun, its a 24" smoothbore with rifle sights on it, as soon as i get a new USB cable for my DIG. camera i will get pics up, it really is kinda a funny thing, but i dont know, i had to bring it home, now i got to try it out with some slugs :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D

Won't the synthetic stock on the 410 tamer barrel fit the 12 gauge barrel???  I have the same forearm as the tamer on my sportster and for kicks put it on my 12 gauge, snug fit, but it fit.

Just curious.

later,
