Henry AR-7
recently a friend asked me what I though of the Henry AR-7 and I had to respond that I didn't think about it at all .. .. well that got me to thinking about it .. .. after reviewing the links below, the AR-7 moved from not being on my list up to I want to know more about it

comments from members who have hands-on experience with one .... it appears to be reasonably priced and to have the quality expected from a Henry

In the new issue of American Rifleman , Jan. 2017, there is a good write up on the history of the AR-7.

Re: Henry AR-7
I don't own one, but I have thought about getting one, too. In the end I ended up getting a Ruger 10/22 SS takedown. The AR-7 is a neat little package, but I just didn't have the need for a survival gun...

I've seen a few videos about this rifle, and the first thought is that it looks really cool. The second thought is usually along the lines of why would you need one in the UK?

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Henry AR-7
I think it would be perfect for a boat in Florida, to shoot snakes, etc. You could maybe even signal for help, whatever............
From what I've read, reviews are lukewarm, even for the Henry. Remember Hickok never gives a bad review.
I believe a lot of the negative could be just a matter of using ammo it likes, and of course there is Henry customer service

Re: Henry AR-7
Don't want to steal SH's thunder here, but he not only has 17 Henry rimfires - he has 17 Henry rimfires with various custom sights, vintage scopes, leather stock covers, custom loops, and various other mods. It is probably the most beautiful collection of Henry rimfires on the planet. He is a Henryholic who has created Henry rimfire "nirvana". He put out this picture of his collection in a previous post. I have it on my computer just to marvel and drool from time to time......BigAl52 wrote:17 all rimfire??????? SH. Holy cow I thought I was bad at 5. You do have a serious issue.
