Newbie Introduction

Post by TexasPatriot59 » Thu Sep 20, 2018 9:28 pm

Greeting All! I'm a newbie to the Henry Rifle family and just picked up my first today. I bought a .22 Magnum Golden Boy to complement my H&R six shooter’s ability to shoot this same caliber. I’ve got a small varied collection of guns that I’ve inherited, bought and a few I’ve personally built the past few years. I think I got the bug after watching a few videos from Hickok45 and then Plinkster and several others. I found a great deal on my H004ML on GunBuyer and finally pulled the trigger a little over a week ago on the day my first grandson was born and picked it up from my FFL today. The blessed event helped me justify the purchase as an heirloom invest as I hope to be able to gift it to him when he’s old enough to appreciate and handle it. I’ll shut down my intro as I’ve got an issue/question for the group in my second thread.

Great to be here. Looking forward to learning as much as I cN about the great rifles. :mrgreen:

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.......

Hi TexPat, welcome to the forum from the TV Oregon! I'm also curious as to how you found out about this forum's existence (see this topic http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5160 )
