Handi Rifle stock on Sportster???
« on: January 01, 2012, 04:19:14 PM »
Will a Handi Rifle stock fit on a Sportster and vice versa?  I have looked in the FAQ's and used the search feature but I cannot find any info on this.  Anyone done this before?

Yessir,been there done that. 
Your Sportster will interchange all the buttstocks.  Now the forearm can be another issue, just shop around to find one with a pleasing barrel channel without unsightly gap.

No problems at all. ALL H&R stocks fit ALL receivers going back at least 30 years.
 
The three exceptions the USH 12Ga, 10Ga shotguns. and muzzle loaders. Even then its just the forends. ALL of these will fit others, BUT others will not fit them. The shotguns have a larger barrel opening and the muzzle loaders is drilled for the ram rod.

I will confirm the compatability of the stocks for Sportster's... as above I have a Hummer in a Choate varmint set and another Hummer and .22 in Boyd's Sterling stock sets... really adds to the look and feel of the gun... the Boyd's set is the best way to go in my opinion!  :)

I too had a Hummer with the Choate sniper stock that I foolishly sold off. I replaced it with a Sportster in 17mach2 and the Boyd's wood stock. Neato.
