.22 imperial metal products

Hello I have a .22 cal.7 shot revolver made by imperial metal products in kinston, N.C. if anyone can give me any info. on this little pistol such as age and value would be a big help.

hi bigben,
you didn't state what caliber, most imp's where cheap s&w copies, .22's go for 100 -125.

My wife has one of those suckers.
IT is a 22 short with made in NY USA stamped on the bottom of the handle with some kind of "pearl" grips.
The piece also has IMPERIAL METAL PRODUCTS INC NYC USA stamped into the frame.
Looks like a toy. Feels like the real thing though.

I have this pistol also; a .22 cal 7 shot relvover from Imperial Metal Products of Kinston, NC. I don't know the age or value. However, I need a set of replacement handle grips. Please let me know if you can help. Thanks!

I have one too did you find any thing out about it

I'm finding out that no one seems to know much about it. This must have been an oddball brand that was not manufactured in large numbers. I still need a pair of grips - anything that will fit. Let me know if you have any ideas!

I have one of these in .22 short - it was my Dad's. As someone said, it looks like a toy with pearl handle grips - but it has a nice heft to it. I can remember him acquiring it when I was a kid - if I am recalling the time frame correctly it would have been 1967. The SN is 0012201 for comparison purposes.

I was given the Model 7 with black grips by a secretary at work that wanted it out of her house. It came with the original box with a section for the box of fifty .22 shells and the manual. Unfortunately there is no dates filled out on the warranty card and no publishinng dates anywhere on it. The guns weer warranted for one year and came in a nickel or blue finish. They made a model 9, 7 and 11. The models 9 & 11 will shoot .22 longs or shorts and the model 7 will shoot .22 shorts only. The box of .22's that came in the box have .75 cents wrote on the bottom so that's a clue to how old they are. The manual states that a copy of the parts will be mailed to you upon request. I don't no what the odds are they would still be in business, but the address was listed as Box 969 Kinston, NC 28501. IMP must have had a New York address also because the mamual states not to mail the gun to the New York office. This address in not listed in the manual.

I also have a Model 7 imp , new in the box.
The price tag on the box is $24.95 and the
box of Remington shorts included had a
price tag of .70. This is serial no. 0014105

wow thats cool,,,those were the days!!!now days a brick of 22s are almost 25.00!!lol..

I also have a .22 cal model 7 imperial. on mine it has IMPERIAL METAL PROD. KINGSTON, NC MADE IN U.S.A, but it says all the on the right side of the gun. Mine also has a serial number but it is on the bottom of the gun and it only has five numbers. I would like to know more about my little toy.
