Wanting to spend more range time with rimfire. How is durability, ejection mechanism, trigger for DA and SA? Anyone?
Tell me about the H R 999 revolver.

Once upon a time. Long, long ago in a faraway land. I decided to get a 22 handgun. I had a rifle and a shotgun only.
I bought the cheapest revolver a gun store owner had, H and R 999. There was log in the forest and I began using it as a backstop for targets. I shot and shot.
I wanted a centerfire upgrade, so I bought the cheapest he had, a Webley Mark IV 38 S and W. I shot and shot.
They both had ferociously heavy triggers, single or double action. but I did not know it then.
The next time I went into the gun store He had an Old Colt Trooper in 38 Special. 357's were much more highly valued. This Colt revolver was cheaper.
He offered me 75% trade in value on the two break tops I bought from him.
I came home and shot the Colt. John Denver had a great line in his most popular song. "Almost Heaven"
I was never happier in my life to "de-own" any handguns as I was with those two break-tops.
