Our Assessment: This is a Sentinel Mark IV, 9-shot .22 magnum caliber revolver from Hi-Standard. This is a single and double action revolver with all-steel construction (aside from the guard). The barrel is 2” in length and the cylinder holds 9 rounds. This is perfect for carrying with you out in the field, when you might run across a sabre toothed jackrabbit or some tasty squirrels. The saw-handled grip frame is very ergonomic and fits those with small or large hands. Please see our photos and good luck!
