After getting the Henry I checked the trigger pull and found it to be extremely heavy, around 8-9 lbs. I did a Google search and found a post on another forum that was an on-going discussion about how to replace the factory springs with a spring that you could order through Grainger.com. The post recommended the 31 lb. spring, but after ordering a bag of 10 of them and trying one in my rifle, the rifle would not fire. The 31 lb. spring would not work, either by itself or with the smaller factory spring installed with it, By accident I stumbled upon a 42 lb. spring that Grainger sells and I ordered some of them just to try. At first the rifle would not fire with just the 42 lb. spring, but with the smaller factory spring installed, it shoots like a champ and the trigger pull was between 4-5 lbs!
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

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.......
