h & r 923
« on: July 09, 2009, 08:44:51 AM »
My boss has an old h&r 923 pistol and was trying to find out how old it is.  He got it from his grandfather years ago.  Any info on this gun would be appreciated.  thanks

There appears to have been several versions of the 923 made.

I stand corrected.  I still can't find any information in any of the reference books I have.  I have owned several H&R .22s over the years, all were fairly good little guns.  I still have a 929 that soots as good as any I own.

The 923 was a nickeled plated version of the 922 and made from1950 until 1982 with plastic grips. Exc condition worth about $100.  So says the Standard catalog of Firearms.
