[ARCHIVED THREAD] - AAC Handi rifle, who has one?

Posted: 8/1/2015 10:20:17 PM EDT

Just ordered an AAC Handi Rifle for $222 from GrabAGun. I have been eyeing one for a long time, after fingering a nickeled .223 Survivor at the local Cabelas tonight, I rushed home and found an AAC.

I have a Burris 2-7 compact scope I think I will throw on it. I primarily bought it for a truck gun and for load development with out worry of blowing up my ARs.

Anyone put a survivor stock set on one?

This is probably my favorite rifle. Doesn't blow through ammo, is really accurate, and quiet as can be in blackout. I was ringing steel at 300 yards with it last weekend with subsonic blackout just because I can.

Just bought this one on Tuesday, haven't shot it yet

Love mine. Super quiet and easy to handle. Only thing is I haven't decided which optics are best suited for it yet. Currently just has a burris Red dot for plinking but would like to get a scope for it but still looking for reasonably priced optics for it.

I just put a shitty Nixon p223 scope and some cheapo rings.

Bought two, sold two.

Survivor stock is shit, stick with the standard ones.

Bought one, saw the Ruger American Ranch was coming out as well so I sold the AAC unfired. Hopefully the Ruger will be here soon

What is the best hammer extension to get for one of these?

How do you like the Handi Rifle OP?

Posted: 8/29/2015 7:08:59 PM EDT

[#11]

I love mine. I don't shoot it very often though.

I have one with a Tru Glo 4x slug scope.
It is quiet enough to use near a house, with my Griffin Scout can.
Fun, and ammo goes slower than my .300 blk AR.

Between the forest fires and working lots of overtime, I haven't gone out to shoot it yet.

Initial impressions are good, I really like the overall size.

Right after I ordered this rifle, I found out Cabelas had one for $239! Only would have saved me a few bucks though.

Picked one up a couple months ago. I have put a box of ammo thru mine. I have a Burris FastFire mounted on mine.

Everytime I see these style guns I want one to use as a hunting rifle and suppressor host.

I bought one from GrabAGun as well, I love it. Worth every cent. KEEP the original stock, the survivor stocks suck.

You know, that's a thought. I bet they do, they used to make H&R/NEF compatible stock sets.

Do they make a .38spc or .357 version? And could one of those be easily suppressed (.38 more so I am guessing)?

They used to, I have a single shot in .357 magnum. H&R/NEF was closed down in February 2015, thank "Freedom Group".

That's why there have been so many great deals on the remaining inventory that was purchased by distributors.

If they would improve the trigger I might be interested. The one I shot felt like about a twelve pound break.

I have an H&R single shot in 45-70 and one in .20 gauge shotgun. The former is for our single shot "primative weapons" deer season. Very strong medicine on whitetail deer inside 150 yards. The latter is my barn gun for critters. Simple, strong, light, quick handling basic tools. No frills, but they simply work. Both of mine have wood stocks, and the triggers are really not so bad on these two specimens, no worse than milspec AR, and better than some.

We've got the H&R .22/.410 combo youth. Father in law gave it to my son for Christmas when he was about 9. Both my kids shot it quite a bit but like the 10/22 better now. Pulling back the hammer got old for them. Plus it's a bit cumbersome with the scope on it.

I'm going to keep it around for critter defense but need to put an optic on it. I can't shoot the fiber optic irons it came with for crap. I wonder what some .410 rifled slugs would be like shooting it scoped..........

im thinking about getting one in 300blk... id like to hear more from people that have them

Posted: 10/12/2015 11:54:25 AM EDT

[#25]

I picked one up a few months back. Taken it out 2 times.. Mounted a Burris FF on it and plan on throwing it in the truck as a back up for deer season. Quiet with an Omega hanging off the front.

[#26]

I was thinking a mini red dot would be sweet on one of these. Although I think they'd be nice on anything but I've yet to try one.....

Posted: 11/28/2015 12:31:19 AM EDT

[#27]

I really like mine. I let my kids use it to shoot up the 300 BLK ammo I have loaded that does not perform to my expectations. With the suppressor and subsonics it is a hoot.

I wonder if we can still get barrels........
