Mint H&R 9 Shot .22

[Star43]

I still have that gun in 32 S&W Long. The model 833.......a very stout and well made gun. It has the 3 inch barrel and looks just like the picture but in a nickel finish. Same design and same rugged liitle gun though.

Anyone else notice how much the Henry revolvers look like some of the H&R revolvers?

999 Sportsman 9 shot, 1930's vintage, looks like hell, but is tight and shoots good

I think it looks pretty darn good. From the 1930's and still is tight and shoots good.......That is a testimonial in itself !!

Great revolver! Harrington and Richardson made a single action version of the 999 called a 199 and a version called a 196 Eureka that was hand fitted with extra care for target shooting. There was also a 2 inch barrel version called a 299 New Defender.

I was just looking at some old H&R catalogs from the late 70's and early 80's. It is amazing to see what they offered back then in rifles and all the revolvers !! Some real quality stuff !!

Bought this one here on the forum recently. Looks like probably 1934-35 vintage.

I have a 999 that I haven’t shot for ages. I should dig it out and dust it off. As I recall the DA was horrendous but the SA was serviceable.
