NEF R92 (H&R)

[Biblethumpncop]

I did a little horse trading this week for a 6", 9 shot New England Firearms R92 22lr revolver. The gun is pretty good plinker.

I didn't care for the original hardwood grips so I made some new grips with scrap Cocobolo that my friend had.

I shot the gun today. 20 yards, offhand on paper and initially it was hitting high. I moved the rear sight 4 clicks and it did the trick. Racquetball size group offhand wasn't too shabby. Every once in a which, I thought it may have been spitting a little. But the gun was fun to break clay pigeons that we set up around 20-25 yards.

Looks great with those new shoes!
Every H&R revolver Ive ever owned/shot had timing issues ranging from annoying to dangerous, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was spitting a bit....

Thanks! I have about $60-$70 worth of trading materials into it. Should be a decent plinker to keep in the old Jeep YJ.

That is a fine looking H&R you have there. Have fun with it.

Looks like a sweet target revolver. Excellent condition.

Nice! That's the fancy model with the long barrel and adjustable sights.

Nice job on the grips.
