Harrington Richardson Sportsman 22

I own a H&R 999 Sportsman nine shot that has been in the family from the 1930's. It is a DA and works flawlessly.
 
Tried Gun Parts Corporation/Numrich Arms for parts? You might search for a Harrington & Richardson Forum.

The top break H&Rs are a hoot. Got this one cheap because the finish is in poor shape but it shoots great. Think it's from 1940 or 41.

A more recent version in the less common 4" barrel. This one shoots a little wild. Disappointing.

I thought I had an old Sportsman but I looked at it and it's a 22 special from 1927 with the saw handle grip. Change the grip out and it could double for the sportsman. Probably the Sprotsman's predecessor. It's double action also.
 
A friend of mine has a Sportsman 999 with semi-vented barrel (that is groves on the top of the barrel but they don't go all the way through.)

We shot it today. Excellent! Now it has all the bluing and guys, I really enjoyed shooting my friends 999. Must have had a 6 inch barrel.

Anyway, it brought me back to my 'teens' and when I had a H&R .22 for my revolver.
