Built during H&R’s final factory era, this Model 904 carries the Gardner, Massachusetts frame rollmark and represents a late-production example of the 900-series target line. The configuration and marking details align with production circa 1980–1985.
The 6 in steel bull barrel is paired with a full-length solid rib featuring longitudinal serrations, providing a clean sighting plane. Sighting is set up with a fixed ramped front blade and an adjustable square-notch rear sight with a top screw.
The revolver operates in double-action/single-action and uses a 9-shot swing-out cylinder with a star extractor and a forward-push rod release. It has an external hammer with a checkered spur for confident control.
Construction is all-steel with a polished blue finish, complemented by a hammer and cylinder left in the white. Smooth hardwood grips with inlaid H&R medallions complete the full-size frame.
