Post by Pa. Woodsman » Fri Dec 14, 2018 9:00 am

Hello, my name is Pa. Woodsman. I'm the proud owner of a new Henry Big Boy Steel in .357mag. I work the 3-11 pm shift. Last month I came home around 11:30pm, turned on the TV and saw a Henry Repeating Arms commercial. I was vaguely familiar with Henry rifles. Anyway I watched the commercial and the next day I ordered a catalog. Two weeks later I purchased my first Henry .357 steel. I've been hunting and around guns for 50 years. I've owned them all. Good stuff and knock around used guns. These Henry rifles are built so well, wood, fit and finish and attention to detail is outstanding. It's like owning a rifle made in the early 1900's. Thanks Henry for making such fine rifles. You've got a fan for life here. Woodsman

Welcome to the Forum from KC! My first Henry was the exact same model and it's been so much fun to shoot! LOTS of 357 enthusiasts here, so you'll get plenty of support and answers to any questions you may have.

Glad you're here and Happy Holidays!

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.......

Hey Woodsman! Welcome from Nebraska. I agree with your choice of the 357. My carbine makes me happy every time I pick it up.

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