This may be covered in faqs but, whars the difference in these models. I think they have a lighter barrel contour but not sure. When were they made? Thanks.

Other than the mannlicher forend with metal cap on the M157, they're essentially the same, I'm moving this to the H&R Misc forum for one of our H&R historians to reply with production info.

I found a previous post on the M157, dunno if it's accurate but production years were 1975-1983.
