Cased Harrington & Richardson USRA Single Shot Target Pistol
Lot # 17 (Sale Order: 17 of 636)
serial #1317, 22 LR, 10'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces retain about 92% original bright blue with the frontstrap and bow of the guard flaking to gray and some overall light handling marks and mild flaking from the years of light honest use. The grooved trigger and sides of the hammer remain polished bright, the back surface of the hammer with smoky case-hardening, and all markings remain intact and strong. The right side of the breech area is very neatly engraved with the name of a previous owner ''GENE HENSLEE''. The No. 5 walnut target grip remains in very fine condition with mostly worn finish and some scattered light handling marks, some contours of the grip having been shortened somewhat during the period of use. This earlier production variant is equipped with low-profile flattop square notch rear sight and non-adjustable pinned thick plain blade front. The included original H&R shooter's case remains in very fine condition, the black leatherette exterior showing some minor scuffs and handling marks and the green felt interior showing some staining and discoloration. Case is equipped with dual nickeled catches, gold-embossed factory label on the interior and leather carry handle. Three empty Remington ammunition boxes are included as well. Mr. Henslee must have been quite the pistol enthusiast as a few other guns engraved with his name have been sold at auction. There was a country singer from Oklahoma around the time period of this gun named Gene Henslee who may be a likely candidate. In any event this is a fine cased example of these quality target pistols. (13B11678-25) {C&R} [The Richard Littlefield H&R Collection] (1500/2000)

Lot # 20 (Sale Order: 20 of 636)
serial #D21473, 22 LR, 2'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. Designed as the snub-nose pocket version of the Model 999 Sportsman, this Model 299 revolver is essentially new-in-box retaining 99% original blue showing just one or two tiny freckles along the gripstrap. The grooved trigger is blued and the polished sides of the hammer remain brilliant. The cylinder shows stamped patent number while the left side of the barrel is etched ''NEW DEFENDER''. The checkered walnut grip remains in excellent condition showing just a few tiny handling marks with crisp checkering and some nice subtle grain figure. The revolver is sighted with adjustable u-notch blade rear sight and brass bead front, the action features frame-mounted bronze firing pin and seems to function well mechanically with solid barrel-to-frame fit. The original blue paper-covered box with repeating gold H&R logo remains in fine condition showing some edge wear and light staining, the lid starting to separate at the hinge. The base is ink stamp-numbered matching the revolver and the end label and surcharge stickers are intact in near excellent condition. The interior lid instructional sticker is also intact. A beautiful unused example of this desirable model. (13C11678-26) {C&R} [The Richard Littlefield H&R Collection] (2000/2500)
