Harrington & Richardson Model 999 Sportsman Top Break Revolver .22 LR with 6 Inch Barrel
Description
This lot features a single Harrington & Richardson (H&R) Model 999 Sportsman top-break revolver chambered in .22 Long Rifle. This nine-shot double-action target revolver is equipped with a 6-inch ventilated rib barrel and adjustable target sights. The frame is constructed of steel and the cylinder face is stamped with numbers 1 through 9 for easy chamber identification. The furniture consists of two-piece checkered walnut grips featuring gold-colored H&R logo medallions. Key markings include “SPORTSMAN” stamped on the left side of the barrel and “22 L.R.” and “MODEL 999 MADE IN U.S.A.” on the left side of the frame. The right side of the frame is marked with the manufacturer information “H&R INC. GARDNER, MASS. U.S.A.” The serial number AP88942 is clearly stamped on the bottom of the grip frame. This model represents a well-regarded American rimfire target pistol noted for its top-break extraction system. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The blued finish shows significant thinning and extensive signs of wear, with widespread surface oxidation and pitting visible across the barrel, cylinder, and frame. The bore was not physically inspected or photographed. The action appears to function correctly with the top-break mechanism and extractor operating smoothly, though it has not been live-fire tested. The checkered walnut grips are in fair to good condition, showing moderate wear to the finish and some light handling marks but remaining structurally sound without obvious cracks.
