Are Single Shots Shipping Yet?

Post by ditto1958 » Sat Nov 18, 2017 9:41 am

Does anyone have any updates on the single shots? This delay has been puzzzling, to say the least. I’m thinking Henry must be having some major design/manufacturing issues with these rifles.

I asked "Henry Arms" about this last week or so. Here was my reply from Patrick on 11/10/17
--------------------------------------------------------------
Good Morning Dale,

Thank you for your interest in Henry and for reaching out. After a few delays the Single Shots have started to ship to distributors as of last week. I can’t speak to specific orders but they should be hitting shelves shortly. Your best bet is to fill out this form and someone will reach out to you directly about availability
-------------------------------------------------------------------

So, I'm thinking they should be around soon! I'm interested in getting the .223

There are some brass single shots on gunbroker. There in 44 mag and 45-70. One of the 45-70's sure has some awesome wood on it. Al

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.......

Judging from the recent Q+A session I think Henry Repeating arms has been overwhelmed with the demand for their new products. Folks seem to be swarming for Henry's new style and old. I think they are having a hard time keeping up (catching up) with demand.

I think I might like the looks of the checkered model better than the brass model. On another forum there is a guy who has one and has already shot it in 44 mag. Im tempted to get one in 44 mag just because I need one. Al

I’m trying to diside if I want a single shot or lever in 45-70. Leaning towards the SS though. Wonder how they will shoot. Can’t wait for a range report on one. Hopefully they will be available for Christmas .

while I have no interest whatsoever in any single shot rifle, pistol, or shotgun, I'm also looking forward to range/use reports on Henry's single shot line of rifles .... out of the box our CCH 45-79 weighs 8.1 lbs .... add 4 rounds and it will be noticeably heavier .... their single shot (blued) 45-70 does come with a recoil pad and weighs 6.83 lbs + the weight of a single round .... based on firing ours, I believe the recoil of a single shot firing a full power round will be brutal at best .... a Cowboy Action load will have less recoil but will still be harder than the same round in a lever model .... it is most certainly going to be interesting to hear from folks who spend time on the range with these rifles

I also wonder how costumizable these rifles will be. Do you think we’ll have the option of adding different barrels like a bull barrel or a longer one?

I doubt it. Not unless an aftermarket for Henry's kicks in. During the Q+A Anthony said the barrels are NOT interchangeable.

Hmmm... it’s interesting that there seem to be brass receiver models out there. I thought the steel ones were going to come first.
