Made another pawn shop buy today of a Topper 148. Has a 32" full choke barrel, and a receiver without the transfer bar. Seems to pattern well. I'm going to give it a try at the next turkey shoot I go to, though it probably won't out pattern my Improved barrel I've been using with success.
Not in bad shape at all, good bore with some surface rust.
I'm going to give a try at fitting my other barrels to this frame, as I like it better than the transfer bar.
If that works out, I will have a three barrel shotgun
. Tell that to someone who doesn't know H&R and you would probably get an odd look.....
