When did the manufacture of the automatic ejecting revolvers end? "Blue Book" shows "1896 to disc"
Comments
the large frame H&R auto-ejecting revolver is listed in the 1940 catalog but not the 1941. in 1941 the same revolver but with 4 inch barrel and over sized plastic grips only is listed as 'the bobby'. the H&R catalog model numbers assigned to this model were No.20 for the 38 caliber and No.10 for the 32. on the bobby they were No.15 for 32 and No.25 for 38.
information i have indicates the auto-ejector as we know it today was the second model introduced in 1890 and the first model was actually introduced as early as 1885. the first model used a different mechanism and ejector but was called "H&R auto-ejector" in the advertizing for it.
