My wife inherented an Iver Johnnson Arms & cycle top break 22 from her grandfather.
From some internet searches I think it is a 2nd model 1897-1908
DOUBLE-POST top latch; leaf springs;
cylinder "free-wheeling" when at rest
The patent # on the band is worn off. the serial # 28372. The gun finish is worn off and was handled a lot but it all works.
I have not shot it yet and from what I read will problably not shoot it.
Is there anyway to bring the patent # up so they can be read?
Thanks
