Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry
Is it true, 1 Henry will lead to 2, 3, 4 Henry's, etc?

I have my first Henry after many years of waiting. I've heard that once you have a Henry, you just want more and more.
Is that true? Are Henrys like potato chips and tattoos?

Well so far I've purchased three. Course I sold two to my buddy down the road. I can still shoot them though.

This will depend on the person and their interests.Is that true? Are Henrys like potato chips and tattoos?
I bought my Henry BBB .357 due to my interest in lever guns, what I had learned about Henry and the appearance, fit and finish - and mostly to replace a Winchester Trapper in .357 I was going to sell. Fortunately I really like it am very satisfied with it.
For me it will probably be my one and only as I have many guns and my interests tend to be with
Traditional and original style guns.
For example if I were interested in a lever action style rimless centerfire rifle I would probably seek out an original BLR or a Savage mod 99

.
Possibly at least a 2nd one. My interest was in two particular calibers. So I likely will stop at 2 Henrys for now. If Henry did a Sharps reproduction, that I would be interested in.

Re: Is it true, 1 Henry will lead to 2, 3, 4 Henry's, etc?
Well there is always that possibility.
I bought the first one ( H001) many moons ago when the kids were young,
and we have shot the bejesus out of it.
Next I wanted a 44 to go with the Rugers, found a nice used one.
Wanted a 41 mag for years and couldn't justify what the Marlin 1894's were bringing.
So when Henry brought those out I ran to get one, #3.
Now that I have three grandsons, I think a couple more 22's will find their way here sooner or later.
Dang Marlinitis was worse for me, think there's about a dozen of those around here.

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.......

I too will probably stop with the two calibers I have. There is room in my safe for a pretty rim fire though, if I get lucky!!

In my case it’s true. I bought a Golden Boy 22 and loved it so much I wanted a centerfire version. So I bought a Big Boy Brass in 357 magnum. I liked it so much I bought a Big Boy Steel Carbine in 357. I think I’m done now. LOL

I bought the Golden Boy 22, and then the Big Boy 357. I hate to sell guns to folks I don't know. But, if I did get the opportuity to sell off a few of my duplicate handguns to a few folks I could trust, (Glocks and Sigs,) now that I am no longer teaching private classes. I would turn THAT gun money into an 1860s model Henry. They are too cool.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
