The T-hole laminates are only available on new rifles and direct from H&R, there's also a dealer on ebay that sells them sometimes, but he's burned a few members here. H&R is out of them now, the price is listed in the FAQs on the 2007 retail parts page.

They're made by Boyd's but at this time they're sold only by H&R and  BV Pawn on ebay who is a Boyd's dealer. Boyd's denys even having them so don't waste your time calling them. ;)

Cool, I have been doing some searching and reading around the site.  There is no way I could do any of the work to my gun like the accurising and trigger work.  Is there some one on this board that does this work to these handis.  Some one I could just send my gun to ?

You would be wise to just take it to a gunsmith that's willing to work on it. Or send it to H&R for a free or very low cost trigger job when you send it in for more barrels!! ;) But most of the accurizing tips are simple, even the trigger jobs aren't hard to do, many newbies have done them and been very happy with the results.

The gun smiths around here are idiots, they told me you cant do trigger work to these guns.  One said he would try.  looks like I am working a deal with someone on some stocks, would like to just send this to someone for fitment and trigger work and whatever tricks to get it driving tacks, the thing shoots great now but it can never be to accurate.

Butt stocks don't need to be fitted, they bolt right on, forends do too, but you may want to do some tweaking after you shoot it, most all of the tips in the FAQs are home grown and fairly easy to do, start without any changes and go from there, O-ring first, then the others, one at a time. ;)

I understand the stock just bolting up but the forend, isnt there differnces in external barrel diameters.   Does a utra bull barrel forened just fit  the standard handi's and so forth.

There's not much difference in the barrel diameter where the forend fits, so forends are pretty much all the same except the 10ga and 12ga slug gun forends which are bigger.
