Umm, wasn't it a rimfire?

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

Re: Henry "movie moments"
Watched Shanghi Noon with Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson again tonight. Action comedy western...
I usually go to IMDB.COM and read the Trivia /goofs first, if I've already seen the movie.
They say to watch for Chan's indian wife incorrectly loading her Henry lever action, dropping the rounds "bullet down" into the tubular mag just before she rescues them by shooting thru a rope at the hanging scene. Sure enough... loads the shells backwards into the classic Henry.

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

Henrys in the Movies
I watch a bunch... and of course you'll see them in true westerns, but I saw Henrys in a number of others in just the past couple weeks. Two stand out. The first was kind of a western... Tremors 4. Bert Gummer comes riding back into "Frontier Perfection" just in time to save the town with a wagon load of firepower including a huge punt gun, and an 1860s Henry which he hands to one of the women. "The cartridge is a bit weak," he says " but it holds a lot of them. " or something to that effect.
The second was a post apocalypse thing where different groups battle to survive, called the "Domestics," which wasn't great, but a fun romp.
The final big shootout has the heroine shooting bad guys (and gals) with a Big Boy Carbine.
Doing a fine job of it, I might add, even shows her reloading the tubular mag.
