Hello from Central Illinois

Post by Preacher » Sat May 19, 2018 1:32 pm

My name is Ed. I live in Champaign, IL. I have had a Henry on my wishlist for a long time and about 2 weeks ago I got my hands on an Evil Roy edition and had to have it. Shot it, loved it, had to have another Henry. I have a carbine length .357/.38 on the way (expected delivery day is Monday). I have gotten the Henry bug. I sold my AR to fund more Henrys. Look forward to learning more about these incredible guns.

A man, without force, is without the essential dignity of humanity. Human nature is so constituted, that it cannot honor a helpless man, although it can pity him; and even this it cannot do long, if the signs of power do not arise.

~Welcome~.jpg
Greetings from the Show-Me-State, Preacher.
Wow! Two Henrys in a month. That for sure was a huge bug you were bitten by. Congrats!! :D

There are quite a few Henry Folk who own the Big Boy .357 Magnum carbine. You'll be in good company.
Enjoy your new Henrys....glad you joined up.

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.......
