H&R did make some quality stuff from time to time. I have an H&R M1 Garand from the '50s.
I had no idea they were in on the production of those... yours was after the war tho.

BTW, the picture was taken about 1952, and if you include my avatar that is three generations of us. Dad's first job upon arriving in CA in the 1930's was as a cowboy. He was the best sharpshooter I ever encountered.When we went fishing we also brought along the .22 rifle. I was a fair shot by the time this picture was taken.

That's a nice synopsis of an early part of one's life.I grew up on a dairy farm in Wisconsin. Daisy model 25 was the starter. Then a Remington model 552 Speedmaster when I was 10. Dad's Marlin 22 always hung in the milkhouse to dispatch unwanted birds. I've seen a lot of empty red and white Remington Kleenbore 22 short boxes. Pheasant season was when the 16 gauges came out of the closet.
Ironbar,
The way I understand things, your model 20 was designed by High Standard, for Sears, and was later marketed by High Standard as the Flite-King.
Fans for those guns might be interested in the Model 20, seeing it as a precursor to the later gun.
