Has anybody started making a hinge action 22 pistol like the old trappers pistol from the early 1900s . I have absolutely zero intrest in a heavy bulky one like a contender .

This is an old H & R sportsman, 9 shot 22, from the 20's. Belonged to my grandfather. Is this what your talking about? If it is I dont think anybody is making this style anymore.

I have a German made copy of the old Stevens Tip up 36. I put a section of Rail on it and can use a Burris scope or Red dot. It was made in the 70's ,and you can still find them.

Danny, is that a model 922 or something close? My dad still has that gun. I shot my first squirrel with it as a kid. Always loved shooting and cleaning it. I hope someday it will reside in my safe
North American Arms makes a mini version of the top break. Not sure how to post a link, but they are on gun broker, kind of pricey IMO or I would have one to play with. Hi my name is Andrew and I have a gun problem. No matter shape or size, I like them all. Just can't afford them all, and hear lies the problem.

Yep, the last couple of warm weekends have really got my blood pumping. Picked up a new reactive target today for 50yrds. Give me a call when you get in the mood and we can get it done.
