My New Single Shot is here!

Post by NoFlyZone » Fri Mar 02, 2018 8:38 am

Hello fellow Henry Addicts!
I'm excited... I received my Single Shot in .223. I've been looking at them for a while. They were hard to find, but getting easier now.
I found a place online that had 3 of them for a super price. Over the phone I asked, and the sales guy said he would look at the 3 and send me the best looking one. I said "I'll take it". Fast forward a few days and now I have it. I think it looks very nice! I've never seen or held any of the single shots in person before getting mine. The quality looks and feels great, looking forward to shooting it. I'm not sure if I'll keep the iron sights (all iron sights are a bit hard for me to see) or if I'll go with a peep or scope? I'm not usually a scope user either.

Anywhoooo, Here are a couple pictures.

Really nice looking rifle, that is special wood. I'm betting it looks even better in person. I think you'll want a scope to really appreciate the accuracy a .223 can give you ;) .

Thank Ya-all!.. I will post an update once I get out and shoot it.
However, I probably won't get to try it out for a couple weeks.
Work keeps getting in my way of having fun. LOL

The guy who picked it out did you a nice job for sure. Awesome wood and from what I have seen and read they shoot as good as they look. 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.......
