Hiya everyone! After a month of reading posts here and searching for info on the SB2-500 Handi-rifle, I finally decided to get one. The only problem I encountered was the fact that noone had one for sale! That was remedied today. A small firearms store about 30 miles from where i live located one and its on its way. I'm so excited its beyond what words can describe. My wife tried though.. said something about acting like a 5 yearold on Christmas morning  :lol:
 I should be receiving my rifle on friday, and will take it to the range this weekend. I'll let ya know how it does.

WELCOME!!!

 I am glad you where able to find one soo quickly!! I order mine as soon as I knew about them. March to be exact. I just got it last week!!! :eek:  :eek:



BTW, yours will not have the laminated stocks as mine does. I ordered them separately.
Let us know how you like it and how it shoots!!!

Welcome Roy,  :D   It took me around a year to get a 22 mag Ultra.  Glad it didn't take you that long.
