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.
Oooh, yeah. Love Henry's quality. I want to get a 357 now and thread the muzzle [mlp]
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.
The one thing it really needs is the big loop.

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.
