One of its most popular was the well-made H&R Model 999 Sportsman, a nine-shot, top-break, double-action revolver that made the term “six-shooter”. Introduced in 1932 as the country struggled through the Great Depression, the Model 999 was chambered for the economical .22 Long Rifle (and able to digest .22 Short and .22 Long cartridges as well), and the .22 WRF (Winchester Rim Fire). The Model 999 appealed to recreational shooters as well as ranchers, farmers and other outdoorsmen who wanted an affordable handgun with a tad more capacity than the standard sixgun.
Key among the Sportsman’s features was its top-break action; lifting the adjustable rear sight unlocked the barrel assembly, which pivoted on the frame as an ejector snapped up and ejected the shells—whether or not they had all been fired. Barrel lengths were 2", 3", 4" or 6".The Model 999 ceased production when the original H&R went out of business in 1986 (although H&R 1871, LLC, revived a transfer-bar version briefly from 1991 to 1999). Three different original H&R models were produced over the years, all of which sported heavy ribbed barrels (vented on later versions) on what was a rather clunky-looking handgun.
