Just watched a western "Jane Got A Gun" on Netflix. Lots of 1860 Henry action in it. I quite liked the movie. Good period firearms, costumes and sets. Beautiful photography too.

As I work my way through many seasons of Rawhide, I see the odd Henry pop up here and there. Very photogenic rifles judging by the number of movies and shows they are used in.

A lot of the "Henry" rifles used in western movies were actually Winchesters with the front stocks removed - looks like some round barreled "Henrys" in the "Rebel in Town" pics above....

I've been watching the 1950's TV show, Wagon Train, which is available On Demand. So far, I've seen 18 episodes from the first season (1957-58). In the 18th episode, The Gabe Carswell Story", an adopted Arapaho Indian played by James Whitmore meets an old friend, Flint McCollough, out on the range.

Gabe's son admires the rifle in Flint's scabbard.

Gabe: "My boy seems to have taken a shine to your shootin' iron. Reckon I've ever seen one like it, either."
Flint: "It's quite a rifle. A new Henry centerfire; holds fifteen shots." He hands it to Gabe.
Gabe: "I've heard of these; supposed to better than a Spencer. A man with a muzzle loader wouldn't stand a chance against one of these."
It's a Henry Centerfire. Holds fifteen shots.
