I looked and looked for an NEF Handi Rifle in .357 Magnum at a reasonable price. No luck. So I finally broke down and ordered a new custom barrel from MGM for my Encore. That took a couple of months. No sooner had I received, installed, and scoped the new barrel, a Handi Rifle ishowed up close by ... and I bought it. No doubt the MGM/Encore is the superior rifle, but I want a gun I can throw in the trunk for a while and not worry about ... and that ain't happening with the Encore.

So, I'd like to sell the unfired MGM barrel. Here are the particulars, cut and pasted from my original order:

I'm out $395. I'll let this go for $370 shipped lower 48; ready to ship on receipt of payment. Did I say it is unfired? It will need to be broken in. Not interested in trades. Thanks for looking.

Edit: I will include the Leupold QR base and an unopened set of QR rings (low) for an additional $60.00.
