I know that you can interchange the stocks from different laminates and synthetics.
I also know a lot of people want a nice piece of Walnut on their Handi.
The Topper Deluxe has a beautiful walnut stock.
Can you interchange this with a Handi?

Short answer. Yes

I wonder why not many people have talked about this possibility with the nice Walnut on the Topper Deluxe?
I guess they don't want to "mess up" their Topper.

The biggest issue I see with the TDC stock is it's only going to be useful for an iron sighted gun for most people due to the low comb. But it shouldn't be too hard for H&R to use the TDC wood, but use the template or whatever they use for a monte carlo stock...unless the stock blanks are too small, which should be easily remedied.

good point. I was just looking at it while I was waiting for a response, and you might be right there.
If I had one I would give it a try, but :oops:.............

myarmor,
I've used walnut shotgun stocks on several of my handis and Ultras. The low comb is an issue to consider, but I've had no problem adjusting to it. But, I'm old enough to remember when very few scoped rifles had high combs.

Wow-now thats a nice piece man

I could see how the comb would, but then again, I have had to get used to more difficult thing in my life than this. But yeah, that stock really sets off your Handi. I like it.....
