Try to look unimportant.   Your enemy might be low on ammo.

Only Handi so far is a 375 JDJ.

Neither, H&R Inc(went out of business in 1986) never made SB1 or SB2 frames, that didn't happen until 1987 when NEF made them, all H&R Inc frames were cast iron tho.

Thanks Quick.  Yep I stubbed it useing a Shilen barrel. Could i use that Topper frame for a 357 maximum?  Better question is what can i build on it besides a shotgun?

The factory used to put out a Max on that frame.
