Aw shucks, Pete!!! Thanks, my pleasure, but in reality, can't really help myself, it's just part of being a Handiholic.  ;)

I know the feeling, but you're much better at it than I am.  Thanks to you, I'm gaining on you.  About another thousand years I'll catch up.   I might add, despite of your decrepid and surly looking old age, you are cared about.  If Patty ever chucks me out I'll come live with you ;D ;D ;D

Tim,

After a lifetime of shooting I thought I was knowledgeable.  I feel as though I'm back in school on this site, and you sir, are the chair of Handi 101.

Thanks!

Tim IS the Handi expert - no doubt about it. He is famous for his quick and right on answers, always helpful. Not only is he very knowledgeable, he keeps an awfully level head. An example we all need to follow. Thank You Tim, you have helped me in ways you do not even know. ;) A tip of my hat to you.

Quick,
You are "THE MAN".

This site was the first one that I ever registered to be on. I lurked for a couple of years before I even registered. I finally got rid of my last Handi. It was a 10 gauge Mad Dog with a red dot scope and a 20 USH barrel with a Bushnell scope. My collection consisted of 6 receivers and 15 barrels. Small compared to Quick's. Mr. Quick was always right there for me. I would also like to thank MSP Retired (Andy) for his insight as well.

Heck, I don't even have any Handi's anymore and still lurk on this site. On the bright side, my Handi collection is not that far away, still intact, just not in my gun room.

Have to agree with all the above. Thanks Tim.  I started out with just one Handi,  now I have 8 and I keep adding. I want a 257 Roberts, not that I need one , just I want one because you have one.   Thanks again for being so helpful,

Cant forget to mention Greybeard and Matt.

THANKS

I'll also send out a thank you to Tim. He's always seems to have the answer or points one in the right direction in getting a problem solved with a Handi answer  ;) EVERY time I emailed Tim to ask a question about an aspect of the Handi or getting my first one bought, he has always taken the time to answer my questions. Thanks again, you truley are quicktodo -gary

No doubt about it, if Tim wasn't around to contribute the way he does, and keep everyone in line this just wouldn't be the forum it is.

He's helped me, and many others, and kept many a Handi out of the scrap metal pile.

Why Remington doesn't put him on the payroll I'll never know!
My culled down Handi's are the 45-70, and then I have a few others to keep it company...357 Mag/Max. .45 LC/.454 Casull Carbine, .243 Ultra, and 20 gauge Tracker II.
