So I have discovered about everything there is to know about the H&R model 923 Revolver. Mine was made in 1955 and it is a 9-shot .22 with a 4" barrel. I have one very big problem with mine: it has no cylinder. The rest of the gun was given to me by the mother of a friend of mine. She told me that she took it from a friend of hers one night about 30 years ago when he came home drunk and waiving it around. Two days later, he was killed in a bar fight. Anyway, she took the cylinder out (that's how you load/unload the thing) and stashed it away in a box until I helped her move a couple years ago. She gave me the pistol (less the cylinder) and said she might or might not be able to find the cylinder. Anyway, I have been looking high and low for a new cylinder and cylinder pin for my little pistol with no luck whatsoever. I was hoping that someone on this board might be able to help me find one. Thanks in advance.
