Is the oldest gun I own.
It is a Harrington and Richardson 'Automatic' in .32 S&W Long. It was made in 1891.
It's not rated for smokeless loads. I have shot some .32 S&W smokeless rounds through it though. Had several pierced primers so I quit shooting it. It's probably a good thing that I didn't try any S&W Long in it. I think I want to get or have made some black powder loads for it. Should be fun.
It used to be my grampa's. Grampa ran a gas station, so I suspect this revolver sat in a drawer under the counter for decades until he retired. There's very little wear and the bore is shiny and sharp. I inherited it.
This is the first gun I legally carried concealed. At the time I inherited it, this and a Glock 21 were my only handguns. Since it was summer out, the Glock didn't hide well.
