What’s Included
- H&R Handi-Rifle chambered in .444 Marlin
- Installed scope mount
Chambered in .444 Marlin, this Handi-Rifle pairs a 22-inch steel barrel and a 1:20 RH twist for a classic big-bore single-shot configuration. Capacity is one round, keeping the platform simple and reliable for deliberate shooting.
The break-action design uses a thumb-actuated top latch located behind the barrel shank for fast, direct access to the chamber. An external hammer and single-action-only trigger provide straightforward manual control, while a transfer bar safety adds a modern, built-in safety feature.
The hardwood stock and matching fore-end use a straight-comb profile, with a rubber buttpad to help manage recoil. A rear sling swivel stud is installed. Length of pull measures 14.5 inches for a traditional shoulder fit.
The rifle has no iron sights and comes equipped with a scope mount, making the receiver ready for glass. The blued finish and Ilion, NY receiver marking identify it as a Remington-era example, produced in the USA during approximately 2008–2015. The Handi-Rifle line was later discontinued, adding context for those seeking this configuration.
