Hello from Austin

Post by Luke » Mon Jul 30, 2018 9:52 am

Hi,

While have been shooting for a long time I bought my first Henry on Friday. Incredible, but true. Bought a Frontier 24” threaded in 22LR and shot it twice already at my club.

What a fun and well built rifle. I wasn’t impressed by the wood, but after shooting it I don’t care at all. It’s very accurate, the action is smooth, and the trigger is actually pretty good as you all know.

My only regret is having waited all these years before buying one.

Greetings from the Show-Me-State, Luke.

I'm a wood nut, and really like the looks of Henry's wood furniture. But you're right on in that how it shoots is where it's at.

Glad you're enjoying it. And enjoy checking out the many Forum threads....some good stuff here.
