H&R Hammerless, Second Model, Small Frame, Top Break, Third Variation.
Made in 1913.
Picked up at the recent gun show for a song, and one with hardly any lyrics at that. Supposedly okay for smokeless-powder pressures, I'm thinking more like CB caps. Appears to cycle; it had one balky position on the ratchet until cleaning. Next range day, I'll find out for sure.
Odds are good that it was originally blued and has been fairly carefully stripped, probably to remove freckling. So it's more a shooter than a collectable, though it fits right in with my collection of .22 revolvers.

Niiiiice!
It should be cool with standard-velocity .22LR.
If you'd like it to be blue again, I can hook you up with the stuff. You can do it in your garage in about a half hour with stuff you buy at the hardware store, or I can send you a couple quarts of leftover soup. I imagine collectable value- since it has been stripped- is probably not a lot.
Did you mean to say "Nickel" and not blue?
