My take I for one was not a big fan of Mike coming back. I liked the guy, but, as Colby had said when he lost earlier "Unfortuantely, you have fired your last shot on Top Shot." But, there he was again shooting. I would have liked to see something like all 5 of the remaining shooters...

My Sportsman Hello 32 Magnum, I did reply to a similar question on a different site. I figured it was the same person requesting information here, but all it took was a cut/paste to get the identical response from me...so I did it. However, on both responses, I said that I have the "safety...

1. Serial Number 986 (STAMPED ON GRIP, CYLINDER AND EJECTOR) 2. Firing pin on hammer or mounted in frame? MOUNTED IN FRAME 3. Safety rim on cylinder? NOT SURE WHAT THIS IS...IF IT MEANS THAT THERE IS A CYLINDRICAL RIM ON THE FACE OF THE CYLINDER SO THE CARTRIDGE BASE IS PROTECTED BY THE...

Thanks Jim Yes, the firing pin is separate from the hammer. It is a stepped-cylindrical part that is held in place by a cross pin. I'm pretty sure I will have to make one myself. The part should be easy to machine (once I know the dimensions), but I'm not sure how to harden it. Do you...

Hello all, I have an H&R sportsman...I'm pretty sure it is a 1st year model (1932) as it has SN #986. Well the firing pin broke on it, and I can't find a replacement. Apparently there was an early firing pin design, and then H&R changed it significantly. Numrich only has the newer version...

Thanks for the inputs Thanks guys for the inputs on the wear and potential failure spots...I'll look for them (if the store will let me...but I'm guessing they will). What I find amazing is how popular these guns are...I was at a local store yesterday, and I could buy a Marlin lever action...

What do you look for to check wear??? I am interested in getting a 39a. But one time I got burned buying a motorcycle...the guy had been riding it in salt water in Mexico, and it cost me ~$500 to fix up the rear axle...I didn't know where to look when I bought it... So, where do I look...

OK...words to the wise... Thanks RCModeler, I'll give "ole Betsy" a good cleaning, look for anything unusual between the sliding surfaces and get some of that grease you mentioned. I'm guessing a very little amount of grease is the right approach. By the way, did you notice that together...

Hello all, I have a very old Winny-72, probably pre-WW2. There is a lot I like about it, but this weekend I shot a very old Anschutz and the trigger was as smooth as silk...way easier to squeeze than the 72. So...that leads me to the desire to improve the trigger on the 72, and that leads...

I just bought one myself...love it In case you are still looking for info, I found a great discussion on another website where a guy is supposed to be writing a book about H&Rs, and knows a great deal about these guns... Here is the link...

Hello all, I'm new to this forum, but this looks like a winner forum. I have a friend who's father passed away, and he left him this Anschutz...But there is no model # on it, and no way that I can see to determine when it was built, and eventually what it is worth. I saw another thread that...
