Handi price question....
« on: February 23, 2010, 02:24:26 PM »
I have been interested in getting a Handi Rifle for quite a while now, but haven't found one I was really interested in. Well today that changed. I was out nosing around various gun stores and ran across a new 30/30 Handi with iron sights and the std plain jane stock. Price was $250, and the store owner offered it to me for $200. Now, not being up on current prices I wanted to bring the question to this group and see what you say. Is that a good deal? If you say it is I'll go back and see if I can become a new Handi owner.

There aint no persuading about it, you had already made up your mind you just wanted reinforcement. We fellow handiholics all think alike! wink
