Picked up a little throw away today
 

Anyone familiar with the H&R 922?

That's a Toy LOL


:helpme

That much I figured out. Anything else . . . . besides being a throw away?

copy paste

the h&r model 922 was introduced approx. 1925. it was h&r's first large frame 22 rimfire revolver. between 1925 and 1952 the only barrel length was 6 inches, the 10 inch barrel version was called "the hunter". the octagon barrel was dropped in 1937 and the round barrel introduced in 1938. the two piece saw handle grips were dropped in 1930 and the grip frame was changed in 1931 to accomadate the same style one piece grips used on the model 999 sportsman. between 1925 and 1952 i have identified at least 7 variations in the model 922.

in 1953 the model 922 was redesigned and production continued until 1961. production was stopped in 1961 when the model 900 was introduced. in 1974 the model 900 was discontinued and production on the 922 was started again. it remained in production until 1979. this time discontinued in favor of the model 622 (6 shot version).

post world war II model 922's were considered the top of the solid frame revolver line and fit and finish show this (they also had a gold front sight). there is no serial number listing on most of H&R's pre world war II models and the serial numbers for the model 922 may have been a contination of the model 1904 large frame centerfire revolver (on which it is based). serial numbers in the 140k's were probably manufactured in the late 1920's.
