Hammer Spur not included with scope base?

[clearwater]

Just placed and order with H&R. They said the hammer spur is extra, unlike on their web site.

Total cost over $34 for base and spur.

Does this sound right?

Last time I ordered you could get them separate or as a combo deal.  That has been about 4 years ago.

i'm cornfuzed myself. . . .
on their page and in the paper
catalog in front of me it says
plain as day" scope base with
hammer spur"

I just bought both in an H&R wrapper at Academy Sports for $21 and change.  I've bought several there.

It appears H&R has discontinued the scope rail and hammer extension as it was, both Brownell's and Midway list it as discontinued, but there are many other options available for the scope rail, the extension may be another matter tho, it's made by Uncle Mike's, is the same as used on the Ruger Blackhawk, but it's backordered everywhere that indicated availability.  It's available on ebay as well as another type, all options are listed in the FAQs, for a scope rail alternative, I recommend the Leupold Rifleman or Ironsighter.

quick,

I usually pick up my Hammer extensions from Optics Planet.  They have the Uncle mike's hammer extensions in stock, $7.99 a set.  When they run out, they usually have them again within a week.

Just make sure you order the correct one:

Set # 2456-0 Ruger Blackhawk, H & R Topper, New England Firearms Handi Rifle

Yeah, that's one of the first places I looked, I buy all my Leupy bases from them, they have free shipping with min purchases, I order 7 at a time, the hammer spur extensions are backordered there too, yesterday when I checked it was listed as 28-38 days just like the one above it, today it's 5-15 days, if it was in stock they'd list how many they have.

I've bought the base and hammer extension here: http://www.rrarms.com/gun-parts/h-r-new-england-scope-base-offset-hammer-spur.html
I think they have them in stock.

Thanks Bill, I'll add it to the FAQs list of sources, if they really have 202 in stock, no wonder no one else has any!!!
