Factory Nickel Handy Gun


Recommended Posts

I bought #53678 from Amoskeag last weekend. After looking at additional close up photos and speaking with Eric Larson, I believe it's original nickel finish

Anyone else ever come across one?

Neither Eric nor I have ever seen another H&R Handy Gun in nickel although Essex did make a couple Handy Guns in nickel.

I have 2 of the nickel Essex guns and only the receiver and forearm metal are plated. .All other parts are blue including barrel, pins, trigger guard and release lever. Also the bead on your gun appears to be plated. Cool gun and very high number but I question factory plating. But who knows?
