IJ Sealed Eight .22

[DAdams]

Had an opportunity to buy this Iver Johnson Sealed 8 eight shot .22 for $25 so I took a chance. Locks up tight and it wasn't abused. No rust, no pitting. Haven't had an opportunity to research its DOB, but they were made between 1931-1957. Very nice holster. I couldn't pass on it.











Anyone have any experience with the IJ?

My FIL has one.  But I have not had a chance to actually shoot it.  It surprised me to see an 8 shot from that long ago.   Seems well enough made.  There are lots of old IJs out there and they go bang, you did great for 25 bucks.

They were and are inexpensive guns. That being said, yours appears to be in very good condition, and should prove quite serviceable. Also, for $25, you got a very good bargain on a quality Brauer Brothers hunter holster, and a free revolver to boot. What's not to like?

I shouldn't have any trouble doubling my money after expenses, which is my minimum criteria when I make a purchase. I like the holster too. What else would fit in it, any idea?

I think I have a size chart. What number is marked on the holster?

I have the snubby version. Yours is in way better condition than mine. Great guns and for your price, you did great! Sent barefoot from the hills of Tennessee

I'm looking forward to getting out with this.

Thumbs up !

If you get tired of it I will be happy to give you $26 without the holster ! :) Edited January 11, 2014 by Threeeighty

H 32 show a Ruger Standard Automatic.

 

Could it be a K32? That shows a Colt Diamondback. model  10 Smith and Wesson, H&R 922,925, and the like.

K 32 makes more sense. The stamp for the letter wasn't that clear. Have to get out the magnifier.
