I've realized that a serial number survey is required to correctly identify and place Hy-Score pistol models in the timeline.
Please take a look at your Hy-Score pistol and post its serial number along with the model number if known.
Please add the following model specific information.
Model 700: only serial and caliber needed
Model 800: serial, scrolling or no scrolling, steel or brass barrel, caliber
Model 802: serial, steel or brass barrel, caliber
Model 803: serial, labeled "Sportster" or not,
Model 804: serial, labeled "Sportster" or "Target Pistol", smooth or knurled barrel end, type of pinning used or not pinned, caliber
Model 805: serial, labeled "Sportster" or "Target Pistol", smooth or knurled barrel end, type of pinning used or not pinned, caliber
Posted pictures will be appreciated.

I have two 800s. Neither has a brass barrel. Neither has scrollwork. The gun in original box serial no. is 838109. The gun missing its rear sight has no serial number.

A gun with no serial is highly unusual since Hy-Score required one for service repairs. anything unusual About the gun?
Glasstomb
Repeaters have the serial located underneath on the barrel.

Dave -
Thanks for the serial number location. It was very faint but I found it.
R876457 Does the fact that it begins with an "R" indicate a repair?

Steve: You are correct. My gun has a serial number - 843023 - located under the barrel. It is a single shot.

It Appears the R = Repeater, and S= Sportster for a short period then the letter designator was later dropped.
Still trying to make sense of the serial number sequence
