H&R 922 in a bag...help needed
« on: January 12, 2013, 06:24:46 AM »
Hi guys, last week at church my friend the great christian gunsmith asked me to stop by his shop. When I did I left with a gun in a bag. He said it might give me something to do during the long quiet evenings.
And I really mean a gun in a bag. It is an old H&R 922 in pieces, many small pieces. It seems someone took it apart years ago and found it recently. They had forgotten how it goes back together and no longer wanted it. He thought it would keep my mind occupied.
I would like to attempt it but don't want to break anything by putting it together in the wrong order.
Does anyone know where I might get assembly instructions for this old H&R 922?
It is not in the best of shape but is reported to be all in the large plastic zip lock baggie. I am thinking it would make a nice tackle box or camping gun.
 
Thanks for any and all assistance....Andy....<><.... :)

You can get a parts diagram from Numrich's. 

Most guns can be assembled from one, but following the parts can be "fun" sometimes though.

That's where I was gonna suggest.
 
I think your buddy was right. It should keep your mind occupied during the long quite evenings.  ::)   ;D

Andy,
 
How old is the revolver? If you can supply a photo of the bag contents, I may be able to help you out.

Hi Sprint, sorry buddy, I have not been able to get that picture yet, perhaps tomorrow. Then the fun begins, I cannot seem to be able to post pictures but in the past I have been able to e-mail them to friendly members who would post them for me (Tim). Perhaps I can e-mail the picture directly to you if I can get your e-mail address...Thanks and again sorry for the delay....<><>....:)

Thank you for posting those pictures knight0344. The bottom one is with some preliminary sub-assembly done of parts I think go in certain places. I think I may be missing a small pin (one of three identical) that hold the trigger group in position but that should not be a problem. Does anyone know where the 3 different sized coil springs and the short pin with them may go? What about the flat bent spring? Any hints or suggestions?....<><.... :)

MSP Ret, take a few pics along the way and let knight0334 post them.
I'd like to watch the progress if you don't mind.

OK buddy, will do. I have an idea where most but not all of the parts go. The order and method of assembly is a sticking point, as well as the location and purpose of the flat spring and one or two other springs and one short pin....<><.... :)

I have a couple projects myself to keep me busy this winter.
Unfortunately we're moving again and that's ruining my fun.
