Default RE: New England Firearms???

I have a Handi-Rifle with the bull barrel in .223 and love it. I have the green wood-grain laminated stock on mine.

I bought it as sort of a novelty gun, but it is a true shooter.

Do 3 things, though...

1. Put a rubber O-ring between the fore-stock and the barrel, where the stud screws through the fore-stock into the barrel.

2. Have the trigger lightened. NEF will do this for $20. No shipping. A good gunsmith can do the same, and faster.

3. Find some good ammo. Mine liked the Black Hills stuff.


After doing all this, I went from 2" groups at 100yds to under an inch consistently.

In my opinion, you can't beat them for the $$$$$$$$. Heck, they'll out shoot a lot of guns that cost 3X as much.
