#TopBreakRevolver

At a local firearm auction last year, I acquired a Harrington & Richardson Auto Ejecting revolver chambered for the .32 S&W cartridge for the lowest winning bid of the day. These top-break revolvers never really caught my eye, but I was willing to scratch that itch, and who knows, maybe even have some fun with it and make some noise. Let’s see how this H&R Auto Ejecting top-break revolver fared on this week’s TFB Wheelgun Wednesday.

I’ve been making some progress in reviewing my Harrington & Richardson Top Break Revolver, and I hope to bring that review to you in the coming weeks on TFB’s Wheelgun Wednesday. However, part of my review really has me thinking about how the next, future top break revolver should be designed since the topic occasionally gets brought up. Claims are often made that modern metallurgy and engineering are up to the task of this mythical future top break revolver, but it seems that we should help round out what exactly we’re looking for.
