Add one more complete...found a used 25-06 .  I'll keep the barrel for now...clean it up and know how it shoots before I offer it on the classifieds.  Def needs some copper remover...  :)  Needed the frame!

I just thought people were tired of this... so I stopped.

Grandpa Mike and Tim,
What is the current count?
and what is the average number of Handi rifles per member?
I am sure Tim's collection bumps up bums like me and my one to 5 or 6 per person answering.
There is a gun show next weekend at the Cow Palace maybe I can find another one I want and double my handi collection.

UPDATE: 17 OCT 2009

190 Handi-Holics.

1,137 Complete Guns.

213 Extra Barrels.

9 Extra Frames.



Updated Handi-holic-ism Level Chart:

Intern Handi-holic                 1
Average Handi-holic              6
Journeyman Handi-holic        12
Senior Handi-holic               17
Master Handi-holic              23   (we have 4 here)

Terminal NUTS Handi-holic!   34   (we have 5 here)



canon6: 6.4 guns per Handi-holic now!  25-35 Winchester?  I LIKE it.

petemi: Nobody is singing, this thread has been looked at over 4600 times, I am waiting for them to stand up and report.  Handi-holic-ism NEVER ends!  Doing right does not END.

mechanic:  I believe you are on to something, someone here (FFL) could buy 100 of some fine cartridge and sell them to the rest of us.



Note:  Please Handi-holics, even ones with only one Handi, we need your numbers (number of Handi-holics is more important than the Handi’s themselves, counting the guns is just fun).  Besides we all started with just one Handi. 

Tim can represent the NUMBER of handi-holics whenever he talks with anyone connected to the Company.  It can’t hurt.

45-70 BC.
.50 cal huntsman.
30-30
44 mag
22 sportster
12 gauge pardner
12 gauge tracker II barrel for the pardner.

Just bought 357 mag and 30-30 for my brother, so I guess he counts.

Still trying to make the call on a coyote killer, but probably gonna get a .223 after deer season.
If he's carrying a singleshot, don't expect a warning shot!

I have 1 shotgun and 3 complete rifles and I am sending one off soon for an extra barrel.  One of these is one of my favorite rifles - my 500 S&W now shoots touching holes at 50 yards from the bench.  Took some tweaking - but that's at least half the fun!

One BC in 45/70......and a small fortune in reloading supplies and misc equipment including one ladder sight and a misbehaving fore end that I am working on.

I did the o ring thing, but when the barrel is warm I still get verticle stringing.


12 grains of Trail Boss and a 405 cast is a blast to shoot.

Now you have gone and done it...

Tim is right I did add the cartridge names to my spreadsheet from the beginning.

One of my future (read time to do it) posts was going to list the popular list.
