Welcome to the 1870s, Henry.

[Zundfolge]

As soon as a .357mag carbine is out I'm going to have to have one.

I almost feel sorry for the guys at Marlin.

[meatman]

Nice. I wonder if they will ever do a side loader in 22lr with a threaded 16" barrel.

[Martinjmpr]

That's awesome. I sold my Marlin 336 (on this forum!) about 4 years ago because I didn't have anything else in .30-30 and didn't see the need to keep another caliber since I only hunt with .30-06.

But I do miss having a lever-action rifle. There's something very "American" about lever guns and revolvers. Even though I have a few semi-autos, I've always held the belief that "a semi auto is a machine, but a fine revolver is a work of art"

So having a revolver and a lever gun that share the same ammo would be cool.

[Doc45]

I have two Henry All Weather lever guns, .44 and .357. Love the .44 with both magnum and special ammo. The .357 is still unfired in the box, one of my sons also has the .357 version and is thrilled with it. I think Henry makes phenomenal rifles and this new side loader sure looks like a winner.

[Bailey Guns]

I have 4 or 5 Henry rifles and love them all. Call me crazy but I prefer the tube load over the more traditional side gate.

The little short-barreled .22Mag with peep sights and large loop is my favorite.

Hard to top off that tube during a gunfight, pardner.

[Bailey Guns]

Well fortunately, the varmints I've used it on have been like Tier 4 or 5 level pests and haven't brought their guns to any of our confrontations. I've been lucky.

In all seriousness, the lack of a King's Gate is the one thing that has prevented Henry from dominating SASS. I expect them to do real well with these.

Yep. The cowboy action guys will scarf these up.

I?ve been toying with the idea of picking up one of their mare?s legs. Glad I held off. Waiting to see if they put the loading gate on them now.

[Zundfolge]

I wonder if this is something that could be retrofit to existing tube-load-only Henrys. If you could send your old Henry in and have them upgraded for a reasonable price it might be worth it.

[Martinjmpr]

Aren't there currently some Italian-made lever guns that are used for SASS shooting? Uberti or something?

[crays]

Yes. And Brazilian Rossi's too, I would imagine.

Yes Uberti makes replicas of old Winchesters. The downsides of the Ubertis is that their QC is hit and miss ... and they're expensive. Like $1200 for a replica of a Winchester '73 (and $1400-1600 for one that's been gone through by someone like Cody Conagher). There's also Rossi rifles that are basically the Taurus of the lever action world (IIRC they're owned by Taurus).

So with an MSRP hovering around a grand (which'll mean a street price of $700-800) these Henry rifles should dominate the market.

[Ridge]

Oooh, yeah. Love Henry's quality. I want to get a 357 now and thread the muzzle [mlp]

[Duman]

I was given a Rossi 12-ga., thought I hit the jackpot. The fit/finish was great, but it needed a little work. So I started working on it.

What it needed was scrapped. The materials were cheap, poorly designed, and not worth the time to fix.

[Aloha_Shooter]

The one thing it really needs is the big loop.

[whitewalrus]

I may have to pick one up now they have the loading gates. I have always liked the Henrys and their build quality

As soon as they come out with this in .357mag and a King's gate I'll be ordering one. (although to be fair I also like the brass carbine so who knows for sure).

And thread the barrel too.

[Zundfolge]

And thread the barrel too.

Ooh, one of their mare's legs with a threaded barrel +$400 + new stock + can.

[CapLock]

I want a 44 mag, side loading gate, color case hardened one.

[wctriumph]

I've been trying to find a Winchester M94 in .44 mag forever but never have the cash when that "one" comes up for sale. I will wait for the Henry and see what they are like.

[ChadAmberg]

Imagine the wait to get a 357. They could double their manufacturing staff, run 24x7, and probably still a year wait.

Guide gun or short Carbine length for sure.

Gun porn for you. One of my favorites. I'm a sucker for big-bore lever guns. And little-bore lever guns. I'd really like to have a big loop on this one.

I actually have one Rossi...an M92 in .357/.38. It's been a good gun. Can't say I know how it would hold up to heavier use. It's just one I shoot for fun and that's been rare. No problems with it yet. The action is quite smooth.

Is it kinda like this?

[Bailey Guns]

Hah! Mine is quite smooth. Not quiet smooth.

It's a SRC just like the Win 94.

[Doc45]

Not a side loader but a very very nice .357, soon to be going to a new home I believe.
