Considering the 300BLK is a 30 cal bullet ... NOT gonna happen. </div></div>


DERPP!!!!!

I came back to this thread to delete my post!! I was getting some work done and I dont know why that question popped back into my head and I realized how stupid it was.

Nevermind!!!

Being that some of the original patents referred to them as silencers I would say it is accurate. Unfortunately some people love to nitpick.
The mags and clips thing gets to me but silencer not so much

Re: 300BLK AAC handi rifle

March is 6 days away, still nothing on AAC's site, no updates.

Still on for March?

I know they showed the thing at SHOT, but no one has info, distributors don't have prices or SKUs, AAC's blog still says "when/if".

Re: 300BLK AAC handi rifle

Mixed signals on this all around: months of yelling "March", then nothing once March arrived, no website update, no release date, no firm details to distributors.

I don;t mind being told I'm wrong, but it bothers me when I'm not wrong.

As I said months ago, don't hold your breath on this one.

And, for clarify, I hope I am wrong, because I too want one.

Re: 300BLK AAC handi rifle

He sure took the time to post some really nice photos and details but hasn't followed through on any of the pertinent information and if they were charging my card without a shipping notice then I'd be looking for some answers. ER Shaw's 300 Savage barrel just hit the market so AAC may lose out on my money.

I wonder if they're second guessing the cartridge after Savage dropped it from their line followed by a pretty smug press release soon after?

June is ending, still nothing.

Might be about time to start talking refund.

I have no problem waiting on something, but being lied to - repeatedly - I have a problem with that.

Maybe RSilver meant March 2013 or 2014, my bad for not clarifying.

Re: 300BLK AAC handi rifle

This is listed as a new item on my wholesalers page. The item number is 102602 and here's the info listed.

"AAC H&R Handi-Rifle Single Shot .300 Blackout 16 Inch Threaded Barrel,Black Polymer Stock, optics ready, break action single shot is configured for silencer use with 5/8-24 muzzle threads. Includes a Picatinny scope rail and has no iron sights. Lightweight profile 16.1 inch barrel with 1:7 inch twist rate. Phosphate coated steel action and barrel. Lightweight black, high-density polymer stock and forend. Equipped with H&R Transfer Bar System."

It should retail between $300 and $350 based on my cost and my assumption of most other dealer's mark up. I don't know when it will be available, however I will be snagging one at this price.

That is the same thing they told me a couple days ago.

Re: 300BLK AAC handi rifle

Exactly 361 days after the initial post, the AAC 300BLK handi rifle is home.

First impression, the threading is sloppy. Then again, a good thread job is usually $100-150 and the whole rifle was $350, so I can't be too upset. The 30P-1 will never meet the AAC handi, once joined, I don't think they could ever be unjoined.

It is scoped and will be on the range shortly.

Should be fun.

What about some pictures. I've been thinking this would make a great saddle / truck gun. Also where did you buy it?

Re: 300BLK AAC handi rifle

Man you have no idea how bad I want to get one of those but after seeing only two reports of them and both being negative I'm kinda hesitant. A guy on barfcom is saying the accuracy blows and and a guy here says the threading is sloppy.

I really want a dedicated subsonic gun for shooting 100 yards and in and this would be perfect.

Unless you're going to suppress it why not save $100 and buy a handi rifle in 30-30? It's basically the same thing and ammo is half the cost and there are a lot better choices for ammo in 30-30 for game. Not to mention you can buy it anywhere?
