It's amazing that this design is over 120 years old.

Looks awesome when it ejects spent casings.

I'm wondering if H&R made more of these, than S&W.

From what I've seen, it's possible.

H&R made them in .22 .32 and .38 ........ possibly other rounds as well.

I've seen newer .22 breaktops from H&R, but the older ones in .32 and .38 S&W are more obvious copies.

I stand corrected.

The H&R is .22 long rifle, 9 shot, side swing cylinder.

I can't remember if it was single or double action. But I am guessing double, because when I think back about single action revolvers, only my Ruger black hawk comes to mind.

These usuall come with a 22 magnum cylinder also
