H&R 922 revolvers???
« on: May 24, 2011, 05:42:16 AM »
Does anyone have an H&R #922 22lr revolver??  Are these full size like near or actually a full sized revolver in 22lr and not a taurus 94 sized smaller revolver?  Whats an average price on these with a 6'' barrel in VG to G condition with a good shootable bore?
Sorry for the dumb questions buti no nothing about these yet.    Thank's  CZY

The 922 was a utility grade H&R, simple yet very well made, mine is a great shooter.
Not fancy, it just works.
Should be able to find a nice condition shooter for around $ 150 bucks.
With LNIB pieces bringing $ 200 maybe a little more than that.

1911,
That model is what H&R called their "Large Frame" - is dimentionally similar to a S&W K frame.
The model was in production from circa 1925 with 7 or 8 recognized variations during the 1st Model; frame change resulted in the 2nd Model starting in 1952.  Later around 1973 a 3rd Model with transfer bar safety system was offered.  Prices on different models will vary quite a bit.  If you know the serial number of the one you are looking at, I can provide more history of that piece.

I picked it up today and it has an octagon 6'' barrel in 22lr.  I'll post the serial number later its away right now. I like it because the frame is larger.  CZY

The hand on many is relatively thin and sharp so the star tends to wear and/or get glitchy. If one gets dirty and the cylinder is reluctant to turn, dont force it (on any revolver for that matter).

Here is mine, and it's a shooter.

the right/left yardstick is a French Revolution-born human measure. It reflects the political spectrum, which is determined by the people’s range of beliefs. Christians, however (and everyone, in fact), should make Truth their yardstick. This inerrant guide doesn’t compromise and build consensus, either; it’s not a politician. It dictates where reality lies. And in a civilization claiming 2+2=5, it’s with the “extremist” who insists it’s 4. For God’s realism so often is man’s radicalism.

Mine is identical but wears a 3" barrel and a round but grip!!!  Great little "tackle of guns"

Here's a pic of my 1950 Model 922
My uncle bought it new.
I have the box, manual, hang tag, and receipt
receipt says $ 24.00
He also gave me the box of shells he said he bought with the gun. There were still 27 rounds left in the box!
Never had a chance to ask him if that was the only box of shells he ever had. But it sure looks like new.

Here's my H&R 922 its 1954 i think my date listed there is wrong.    Don't forget to lube the star wheel that turns the cylinder with some gun grease.
