116 Handi's ... Wow
« on: February 25, 2010, 04:25:40 AM »
Don't know if you have been following the sticky  " Just Wondering ... How Many H&R and NEF on this forum." topic.  We have a new member Woodsman85 that has 116 Handi's!!!

I just don't know what to say ... Wow.

 :o Absolutely the ultimate in "Handi" addiction. I thought Tim had it bad, but this one takes the cake. Kinda makes me ashamed of the 9 that I have. ;D ;D

He does not have a Hornet or a 20. Methinks he needs 118.

woodsman85:

I asked this question of you in the How Many Handi thread but I will ask it here also if you don't mind.

Of the non production calibers you have who did or does your work for you?
Just curious to know if there is someone else specializing in Handi barrel work.

Woodsman you will be surprised now that you found this place...how many of us do not think your 116 is BS. After I found my first Handi I sold all my Encore and TC stuff and over roughly 4 yrs went straight to 27 H&R's then after selling like six of them to some what thin the heard in the last 3 months I have aquired another 3 ask Longtom if he thinks your 116 is BS or Dinny they both got it bad right now. I feel lucky at times and unfortunate at other times that the area I am in is not a big H&R area...cause if it was I would be in real trouble. Welcome aboard. Kurt
