H&R 3 barrel combo, Heavy Bull barrel? rim/center
« on: October 19, 2006, 08:19:32 PM »
I have a question on the new 3 barrel combo series, http://www.hr1871.com/Firearms/Combos/barrel3.aspx

do they have bull barrel? for example 17HMR? if not, can you install a bull barrel on it?

does the 3 combo reciever take both rimfire barrel and centerfire barrel? of course it takes the ones that comes in the combo, what about the barrels you can buy in the acc/barrel program?

thanks

No one has reported having one yet, but we speculate the frame is just an SB2 centerfire frame, the rimfire barrel probably has an offset bore just like the Versa-pack .22/.410.

Maybe a switchable firing pin like I think they have on TCs?

Be sure to post your experience. I am by no means the smartest guy on this board about these things but I cant figure why a new receiver would be necessary.

Pills,

Rimfire and centerfire barrels on the same frame without offset rimfire bores would be the first thing that comes to my mind!! ;) One frame won't work for both without some way of moving the firing pin strike.
