Thoughts on H&R 12Ga Pardner..

[berger]

I was wondering what you guys think about the 28" H&R Pardner 12Ga? I do not own a shotgun and I am thinking of getting one. The price at Wholesale Sports is $139 right now and that seems pretty good to me.

PARDNER · 12 Gauge
Barrel: 28" • Choke: Modified
Mfr. # SB1-011 · 241694
$139.95

Very old Pardner still in use

I've got a very old "Topper" which is now equivalent to the current Pardner. It was my grandfather's (he bought it before my mother was born). With firearms that simple and well made you can expect long and good use out of them. At 139 bucks I'd jump on it. There are very few moving parts and it's quite light weight as a result (though that does tend to increase recoil with heavier loads). Simplicity can be perfection. Definitely though, your intended use for this shotgun would be one of the most important factors in making a decision.

i just posted today about my H&R

Earlier today I posted about my 10-gauge H&R. It does not kick that bad, just keep it tight to the shoulder. I love it so far, my buddy liked it. It shot good and I maybuy a rifled one before deer season.

Good solid gun. The modified choke is nice. Most singles are choked Full. Price is good. I like the Baikal a little better as it has no hammer and a cross bolt safety.
