Default You Don’t See Many Of These In Nickel….



Just picked up this H&R Model 905 9 shot .22 in fairly rare nickel finish.

Your right. Rarely seen in nickel and an underappreciated gun.

I suppose on one hand someone will say yes, but it is still an H&R, however, I am genuinely impressed and would be happy to own it's twin.

I have had, and still own several H&R revolvers. These inexpensive guns shoot great. They don’t have the fit and finish of more expensive brands, but they are accurate and durable. I actually have more fun with these revolvers because I never worry about a scratch or ding in the grips like my S&W’s and Colts.

Looks more like stainless steel to me; brushed frame and polished cylinder. Nice looking revolver, either way.

Nice looking revolver, like the heavy barrel. Need a range report to see how accurate the gun is. Kinda looks like a H&R PPC revolver, Larry

Very cool. I came across a nickel .32 with the box a couple of years ago. I love H&Rs. Congratulations on yours.
