mossy camo stock

[jeff birkey]

I  have a H R SB2 44 mag with a mossy camo stock. If I sent it in to get a black powder barrel fitted on it, can I get a mossy for-arms? I'm new to NEF and H R, what is the difference between SB1 AND SB2?

Thanks
Jeff

I don't think H&R makes any camo Huntsman forends, just plain hardwood, commonly called "pallet" wood, you'll probably have to camo the forend that comes with it, but you can always ask on the order form.

SB1 are ductile cast iron shotgun frames, those the come with the 357mag and 44mag have smaller rifle firing pins. SB2 rifle frames are heat treated, investment cast alloy steel, made for high pressure chamberings like 30-06 and 270 Win. If you 44mag has SB2 on the barrel, it doesn't mean you have an SB2 frame, H&R has been putting SB2 marked 357 and 44 mag barrels on SB1 frames since 2008, the only way to know what you have is to compare it to the pics in the FAQs and Help sticky, or call H&R and ask what barrels can be fitted to it. If it's relatively new and has a CAC serial number prefix, it's an SB1.

Thanks again Tim for responding and thanks for the education. The 44 mag frame is a CAC. I will use my shot gun frame for the bp barrel, it has a wooden stock.

Thanks again
Jeff
P.S... more questions to come I'm sure.

are they fitting ml barels again?  the website says ml barels not available

[quickdtoo]

Yes! They won't update the website until they have a bunch of barrels made.

Thanks to Brian and quickdtoo for all their help in making this happen.
