What is the model number for sportster in 22mag with no sights?  The H&R web site is not very clear or complete, and wher might one be found?

Gents,

I've been looking for a 22 wmr sportster (with iron sights) for a couple of months and can't even find one on-line to order.  Several gunstores in the area can't get one from their suppliers, either.  I guess I can get one the next time they make a run of barrels, but that will be for next hunting season, not this one.  Something to look forward to...

It's shown as back-ordered, but you can put your email in to be notified when they get them in.

I just put BC-Carbine wood on mine and love it even more (Ultra wood went on my 38-55 TM and I love it even more). Great find on the Ultra, they are still out there, get 'em while you can.
