I would note that last time I contacted Harrington & Richardson (maybe 3-4

glad to answer questions.

Dropping H&R an email question on the H&R website can't hurt. You might get
lucky and find some of those old guys are still there and still willing to
answer a question or two.

Thanks, I'll pass that and Richards concise comments along.

It seems to be a fairly primitive thing from what he told me.

H&Rs were well enough made..but were on the Cheap end of the
spectrum. They tend to have timing problems and broken "bolt "
(cylinder) stops. Which can be had..though they will take some hand
fitting, from minor to major.

One finds a bunch of them nickel plated..and the nickel is flaking off
or long gone.
