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 from the Northland of the Show-Me-State, Ozark.
As you noted, Henrys do come with quite impressive wood furniture. One of my favorite parts.

Sometime when you get settled in with your new rifles, it would be interesting to me to hear some about your trapping experiences. E.g. do you trap on your own property? Trap(s) used? "Target" game? And so on. I've never got to do that and it sounds like an interesting other hobby. Don't know how many trappers are on our Forum.

Enjoy those special times with the grandsons.
