    cheap revolvers

    What do you expect for free? there are countless 3's of H&R's out there that have been shot for years with no care or upkeep, and they just keep going bang. By the same token, they were a budget priced revolver, and I'm sure there were some duds produced. All I know is that in all my 40 or...

    cheap revolvers

    Definitely not "cheap" any more. But, H&R's are still very well built revolvers, and the values, especially the sportsman series, are really rising! Great revolvers. A few sportsman Some 22/22 mag convertibles A pic of some various other models

    H&R 940 9 shot 22 question

    crestoncowboy, Can't help you with the lettering, I have never heard anything about any H&R's with red lettering. From the Blue Book of Gun Values, Bill Goforth's research talks about the key lock on the Model 939, which was the same gun as the Model 940, except it had a slab sided barrel, while...

    H&R Revolver ID help needed...

    First thing that will really help, is to post some pictures. Second thing is all H&R's had serial #'s, it may be under the grip, on left side. The matching #'s you speak of are actually the last 3 digits of the serial #. Third is, I am by no means an expert on these older H&R's and don;t...

    H&R Model 666 revolver

    303tom J prefix on your revolver = 1949 manufacture. 10 years before the 22 WMRF cartridge was introduced. The cylinder for sure did not come with the revolver originally. I really have no explanation for the model 922 only being a 6 shooter. I can tell you with confidence that the 922...

    H&R Model 666 revolver

    303tom i would like to know the letter prefix of the serial # on the 922 with the mag cylinder you have pictured. To determine date of manufacture. it appears to be a model in the early to mid 50's. I have a 1950 model that looks exactly like yours. The magnum cylinder shown with the 922 is NOT...

    H&R Model 666 revolver

    303tom, As you know, the 922 is a 9 shot, 22 lr only revolver, while the 666 is a 6 shot 22 lr / 22 mag convertible. They do look a lot alike, and function alike also. both being pull pin to remove cylinder. Basically the same gun, except the 666 has the 22 magnum cylinder. Also the 666...

    Tom is right, It is always worth a call to Numrich, they do sometimes have parts in stock that are not listed online! I will get my box of spare grips out today and check to see if I have any.
