H&R 922 made 1927-1928, 9 shot fluted cylinder with a 6" octagon barrel. Double action with checkered wood grips. The serial number is the lowest number known for this model.

Wow! THats a crazy grip. Very cool gun there.

Part of my old gun collection.

Ok, I used to have one JUST LIKE THAT. To be honest, It looks exactly like mine. Maybe you got the one I traded off perhaps?

Nice, I like those old guns. I used to have a similar pistol (not exactly the same).



Now THAT is pretty cool.

Every time I've seen one of these it was wrapped in "grease paper" and kept in the bottom of a fishing tackle box

Fmj, yeah I let Bear talk me out of that revolver.

Talk you out of it? I paid for it, besides all you were gonna do is sell it to someone else.

Hush. It sounds better this way. Besides, it was easier to sell it to you.

True, besides you knew I would keep it.

I was afraid you'd send barb after me if i didn't let you keep it.

Yes, SWMBO can be very scary when she puts her mind to it.

I'm gonna admit, this is really funny! At least I know that gun is in a good home.

It is funny. And it's in a very good home. I had no idea about any of it's history until I got it home and started researching it. Met Fred for dinner that night, showed him the gun, and it was pretty clear that it had to go home with him. Fits his collection of old and classic guns quite nicely. If you poke him gently you might even get to hear about them

To Bear 45/70,
I have a 922 pre 1936 model that has a little piece broken off the hammer that holds the hammer 'half cocked'.

If you ever have occasion to take the hammer out of the gun I would very much appreciate a picture of it.
It would help me find the part or have a replacement made.

Thanks,
