H&R Handy-Gun

The H&R Handy-Gun is a single-shot, breech-loading handgun produced from 1921 to 1934 by Harrington & Richardson. Two principal variants were produced; one with a rifled barrel and one smooth-bore. The rifled-barrel variant was produced from 1930-1934 and it featured a 12¼" barrel. It was available in .22 WRF, .32-20 and possibly other centerfire cartridges. Some guns were originally factory fitted with a wire stock. Production was halted with the passage of the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA34). Rifled versions with a detachable wire stock are a short-barrel rifle under federal law and require registration. Pistols without the stock are exempt.
