I have a H & R 22 rim fire with a 6" barrel, octagon barrel, trappers model.
The serial number is 177717. Anybody have any idea about when this revolver was manufactured? Or any other facts?

thanks,
JD

no known serial number records, so i can only give an era of production. recorded number never reach 200,000 so this is a late production.
