Harrington & Richardson muzzle loading barrel

I'm wondering if I can get a muzzle loader barrel for my H&R twelve gauge. Would the new ones (H&R 1871) also work on mine?

Only for receivers made since 1987 (except 10 gauge) and it must be sent in for factory fitting.

Here's all of the details:

50MS 50 Cal., 24" Stainless Steel (1 in 28" twist) $113.00

Profane2005,
You need to click on the link in blue type in Post #2 above and it will take you to the H&R page with all of the information about where to send the receiver and fore end to have the barrel fitted.
Whenever you see typing of a different color, that means it's a link to click on, and there's also one on the H&R page to obtain an order form to print out.
You can always call H&R Customer Service at (978) 630-8220 if you have questions.

It doesn't seem like a muzzle loading barrel would require sending in the frame to have it fit. But mine is pre-1987 anyway. I checked out that link riddleofsteel. Sent them an email.

We do not sell additional barrels outright. All barrels must be factory fitted.
Quote:
In order to obtain an additional barrel(s), the stock, forend and frame (receiver) must be sent to us so they may be properly hand-fitted to the barrel, to be sure they are correctly head-spaced and proof-tested.
Quote:
Additional barrels may be added to firearms of our manufacture since 1987 only, with a serial number that begins with N or H. We do not install additional barrels on any other manufacturer’s firearms.
H&R is a different company from H&R 1871.
