I was given an H & R Model #999, nine-shot .22 Caliber pistol. It is a top break action. Unfortunatley, it is missing a good number of parts, mostly related to the trigger group, trigger guard and mainspring area. I'm needing some help identifying it, so I can buy the proper parts to bring it back to life.
The gun is in good shape, with minimal handling wear to it's blueing. The main issues seem to be someone took it apart to do a trigger job and never got it back together, in the meantime losing a goodly number of parts. Since I don't have anything in the pistol, I feel I could restore it and have it running as a nice little .22 revolver. The top half (cylinder area) of the gun and the hinge area are in good shape.
The gun has "Sportsman" on the left side of the barrel, is marked as a Model 999 and was made in Gardner, Mass. The serial number is AX07XXXX.
Thank you for your assistance,
Dave
