Always had a soft spot for the H&R/NEF 9 shot .22 revolvers. Found this one today at the local pawn shop. Dirty as hell, but it cleaned up pretty nice.

I like them too, and the top break Sportsman. Shot both from friends but never owned either.

I picked up a R92 with a 6" barrel a few weeks ago. I made a set of Cocobolo grips for it. Have fun with your 9 shooter!

I've never been quite sure what steam punk is, but that word just popped into my head when I saw the pic above. Hope it shoots as solid as it looks !

Nice grab, the only thing in Pawn shops aroun d here are old TVs and used tools.

Yep, there's something about the look of the H&R revolvers. A couple of years ago I found one that was in one of my favorite calibers , the 32 H&R mag. It was in mint condition and I just had to have it. It was inexpensive as 32mags go.
It's a great little shooter, but I treat it gently. I have my Rugers when I want to scorch the hide off the target.

I LOVE those things!
I had one like that, but with fixed sights and it looked like it fell out of a dog's butt, BUT it SHOT!
There was a 94 convertible in my accumulation at one time, and it shot very well too.
I too like the aesthetic of H&R revolvers and they fit my hand well. Aside from a horrendous (but crisp) SA pull, and an even more horrendous DA pull, I was able to shoot them very well.
That one's a gem - very nice. I'd have that out getting my own dirt on it posthaste.

I remember the adds in Fur, Fish and Game magazine when I was a teenager. I always liked them.
