Which handi is this?
« on: December 11, 2007, 05:17:01 AM »
I saw this on the handiholic site and thought that is what I want.  The barrel contours look like a H&R topper but the high hammer look like a NEF Handi.  The sights say its not a superlight either.

I don't think it's coming up after I copied and pasted it.  It shows a Handi with a fairly slender barrel contour, normal front sight peep rear sight.  The straight stock could be a Cinnamon Lam but the color is all walnut.

I can't see your pic but the superlite youth barrels do have sites.
It may be one of them with new stocks.

That is a site that Tallyho put together and that is one of his favorite guns, I may be mistaken but it may be a 30-30, I am sure he will know all about it....<><....:)

The Handi on the home page is Kerry's 357Max with a cinn laminated straight grip stock, just like mine on top in the pic below, but without the checkering.

Thats it.  Isn't that barrel contour slimmer then normal or is it just my old eyes.  I would love to have it in MSP Ret .30-30

The 357Max is a standard contour, I'm pretty sure, His 30-30 is the one with the mannlicher forend in the group photo, it's a Model 158 which had a much thinner profile. Here's a pic of it when I had it.

The pic on handiholic has the high hammer of the current NEF though.

I would like to thank everyone for helping me find out which Handi that was.
