Ordering New Barrel's
« on: April 06, 2013, 06:39:35 AM »
OK, I have never ordered new barrels, need some insight.  On H&R site it has instructions but I have read a few posts about needing to get a reference number or something.  Could someone give me the correct process since it's the weekend and I can't call them.  Also has anyone heard if rimfire barrels (.22WMR & .17HMR) are in stock?
 
Thanks,
Steve

Steve,
Glad you have it worked out.  Just to make sure your aware, the rimfire barrels only fit the Sporter frames, unless you have a "rare as hens teeth"  ;D ;) VP barrel.  Those barrels have been discontinued, but occasionally are available in the classifieds at a reasonable price, or on e-bay at an outrageous price.  You might also get lucky, when one of the other members spots one for sale at their location, and posts contact info for you.

When you allow a lie to go unchallenged, it becomes the truth.

My quandary, I personally, don't think I have enough Handi's but, I know I have more Handi's than I really need or should have.
