H&R Club

Little 922 that I got a few months ago. I just got it out for the first time last weekend. About every other round was a non-discharge, light-strike.

dagger dog,
Here's a pic of my 1955 Sportsman.
Not as nice as yours, or 32 magnum's, but also has the jeweled hammer.

Here's another model with the "jeweled hammer" - M930 from 1958:

303 Tom,
Nice, welcome - looks like you have a pre-1953 Model 922? What's the serial number letter prefix? I'm guessing J, K, L or M.

 

[303tom]

Yes & I have this one too . 60`s something I think !

 

[jamesjo]

32magnum,
The model 930 is sweet!
Is that a factory chrome, or a refinish?

jamesjo, that old gun has lots of holster wear, it's just my out of focus pics that make it look nice !

Checking in with a 732, I was looking for an inexpensive entry into 32 S&W Long. Looked hardly fired, for $99, and it shoots pretty well for being an inexpensive (but steel with swing out cylinder) sort of gun. I'd like to find a 32 S&W top break but finding one that isn't either ragged out or priced like a S&W are hard to find.

Just bought a 904 to compliment my Ivr Johnson Sealed 8. Looked on tghe Hunter Leather site, and they sell holsters for about every brand except H&R.

303tom,
Providing the letter prefixes to your guns' serial number will allow us to give you the exact year of manufacture.

jamesjo -
The Chrome finish on that one is original - there is one small chip on the right side of the receiver behind the recoil shield. I've shot that thing - I was surprised at how accurate it is with the short barrel. I like the flat sided barrel and full size grip - gives it kinda unique look, eh?

Evan Price,
There are "snubbie" .32 S&W Long top breaks out there...they show up on the auction sites pretty regularly.
Here's two examples of short barrel top breaks in .32 S&W L that I've found over the years. 1st one is an example of an early 1930's "large" frame AUTO EJECTING and the 2nd is an example of a "small frame" PREMIER from a bit earlier.





They also show up in the small frame HAMMERLESS configurations:

 

[jamesjo]

32 magnum,
Yep, she's a beaut!

 

[303tom]

32 Mag- Cool! I will keep looking. A figure a light load and some hand cast lead slugs would do just fine in them.

 

[jamesjo]

303tom
AN= 1975 manufacture

 

[jamesjo]

markallen,
Nice!
I have already posted a pic of my 12" model 686.

[303tom]
