Visually, the Topper Buck pairs timeless aesthetics with functional simplicity. It is fitted with smooth walnut furniture—both buttstock and forearm—that not only adds a warm, classic look but also provides a solid, comfortable grip. The shotgun is equipped with a blade front sight and a folding, adjustable rear sight, giving it an unusual level of sighting precision for a single-shot shotgun, making it especially useful for slug use. Built during a time when H&R was renowned for its practical firearms, the Model 162 carries the legacy of a company that had been producing affordable and dependable guns for over a century before ceasing production in 2015. Though no longer in production, the Topper Buck remains a beloved piece among collectors and field users alike, valued for its simplicity, reliability, and nostalgic connection to a proud chapter of American gunmaking history.
