Old 'Econo-gun' .22's
A couple of what used to be 'econo .22 revolvers'.
Bottom is an H&R M999 'Sportsman'
Top is an Iver Johnson 'Sealed Eight'.
In their day, these were 'working man's revolvers', meant to be a far less expensive option other than S&W and Colt.
Interesting to me that there is absolutely nothing on the market now that occupies that niche anymore with anything approaching comparable quality - and never will.
