handi-rifle 7.62x39

[publius]

does anyone know if the handi-rifle is available in 7.62x39? If not do you think they would sell an unchambered .30 cal barrel? that would be great so I can use .308 bullets.

Publius: Sorry but no and no. Its no problem for a good 'smith to make a barrel for it though.

This guy specializes in just what you are looking for. Prices seem fair, too.

Rossi makes one. Saw it the other day in Gander Mountain.

There's an H&R/NEF forum over on Graybeard Outdoor Forums that might be worth a visit.
