Has anyone been able to confirm the existence of the new H&R mag action? I know they show up on my distributors inventory but who knows. With the new purchase plans in the works will there be design changes like making the H&R more like the TC (removable hinge pin). Will the barrels we have on our SB2 frames fit on the new mag frames if they in fact appear? Inquiring minds want to know. With all the major acquisitions by large holding companies there could be vast changes in 2008. Just think Chrysler now has a lifetime warranty! I just bought a new Smith & Wesson shotgun made in Turkey. "The world she is a changin my friends." I as many of you can remember Packard, Studebaker and Edsel just to name a few...... ::) ??? :-[ :-X :-\ :o :( >:( ;)

MSP,

If it is what I am thinking it is, a friend had a 34 Willys with a 392 chrysler hemi in it that he use to run when I was a kid.

My Dad was a real Willys and Kaiser fanatic, one of the more elusive was the Willys Aero, we had a two-tone red over white model when I was a young fella. ;)

I was born in the back seat of a 1950 Packard. I know the chances are good I began there also :D
Have a happy new year everyone.
