I just picked up a 35 Whelen this last week, but the barrel is sold.  Just never did intrest me that much, but I needed another frame for the 223 SL barrel that I found hiding in the back of one of the safes.  Forgot all about her, guess she's a shy little thing.  Will have to get her used to meetin' everybody.  Otta make a good one for one of the kids.  Hope the 35 Whelen does good for ya JerryKo.  DP

UPDATE:

164 Handi-Holics.

1,086 Complete Guns.

203 Extra Barrels.

7 Extra Frames.



Updated Handi-holic-ism Level Chart:

Intern Handi-holic                 1
Average Handi-holic              7
Journeyman Handi-holic         13
Senior Handi-holic                19
Master Handi-holic               24

Terminal NUTS Handi-holic!   36



JerryKo: Right, actually lack-of-funds doesn’t seem to work very well for me either.  Yes I see what you mean, way to go, more barrels are good.

necchi: Thanks for joining us.

kinslayer1965: Good going, I really like my 500 S&W, I shoot hard-cast mostly now.

gendoc: You have it real bad … we are all very proud of you.

petemi: Nice thought Pete… but there isn’t going to be any recovery… this is one of those orphan diseases, no money will be spent on a cure.  The best known “recovery room” is the deep woods with a Handi in your hands.

cbourbeau32: Thanks for joining us.  This is a good thread because of all the handi-holics joining in.

LONGTOM: YOU ARE Way Past Terminal NUTS.  I am very proud of you!  (Imagine me wiping a tear from my eye).

dpe.ahoy: You are well on your way.

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.

My first post on this board.

I have a complete 20 gauge H&R and an NEF in .45-70 that I'm just starting to fall in love with.  I've owned it for near 10 years, shot it today for the first time.

Nice site, by the way.

I have a Buff Classic with a factory mated 22" 45/70 barrel, and a .204 Ruger barrel. I recently purchased a reciever, and mated the .204 barrel to it, and a thumb hole stock from Boyds 2nd offerings a while back.

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

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.
