Holmes, NY member here

Post by Jmpadmore » Fri Apr 27, 2018 4:16 pm

Joined about a month ago and just took delivery of a new big boy in . 357 steel. Went to the range (same as the ffl) and put 80 rounds thru it. Sweet rifle and my first lever gun. I hope to learn a lot about Henry rifles here.
Holmes NY is about 1 1/2 hours north of NYC, and still considered upstate NY.
Thanks guys!

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

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.......

~Welcome~.jpg
Congrats on your .357 BBS Henry --- that's a great caliber, and a perfect choice for your first-ever lever gun, Jmpadmore! I'd bet it won't be the last Henry you'll be owning either. ;) Enjoy.
