There is only ".22 rim fire" and a serial number on this gun. Anyone know what it is?

Harrison & Richardson.

iver johnson target sealed 8 .

who the hell is Harrison?

I think Iver Johnson Sealed 8 revolvers were hinged break open.

With a score of 47 or 48 out of 50 we can rule out the Imperial Storm Trooper model...

I think they made top breaks as well as solid frames. I know they made solid frames because my Grandad has one.

The one in question is not a Sealed 8 though. The target logo was H&R. IJ had the HootOwl.

It appears to be a Harrington & Richardson ~ .22 Cal. Revolver

I found break-open models (which yours is not) - but similar to your pic - with the same
grip (with 'Target' in circle) - but not your exact model with the un-fluted cylinder, which
I presume to be an older model.

Iver - Johnson

It is a Harrington Richardson & really should have some markings on the barrel. Under the base pin?

I've never known this guy to be wrong identifying a revolver......


And this guys always wrong:



So, my money'son the Iver Johnson Target Sealed 8.

Harringtons younger brother!

It is a Harrington & Richardson Victor .22 Cal Revolver, likely with aftermarket grips, which renders the symbol on them irrelevant.

Same gun; different grips:

How much $?

Here's the Iver Johnson Target Sealed 8

Sorry, but different gun.

Subject gun has a base pin that is the same as the H&R and different from the Iver.

Shape of the rear indentions on the H&R cylinder are the same; different from the Iver; Iver has fluted cylinder unlike the subject gun and the H&R.

Hammer shape on the subject gun is the same as the H&R. The Iver has a much shorter angle on the back end.

Subject revolver and the H&R have the rounder back frame; the Iver has the V notch.


I could go on and on. Do you want me to?

The subject gun and the H&R are almost identical except for the grips. The Iver is close but not nearly the same.

MH,

I posted the Iver Johnson so everyone could see the comparison and decide for themselves.

Facts are facts. I see no room to disagree with your analysis.

Next time we're in the same AO, I owe you a beer.

Thanks SargeMO!

Thanks for the help guys!

Thanks Antelope. I would love to share a beer with you. But I choose truth over facts.



A lot of this also is philosophically helpful to me:
