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.......

Oh, I am really interested in the high power barrel swaps. Wow! What fun we could have.

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

Nice rifle, that’s why I don’t touch anything in gun shops anymore.
Nice Diamondback cover on your truck as well.

I keep flip-flopping between the SS 20 ga. and maybe a SS 44 Mag. Who knows?

To be honest, since you like the new Henry shotguns, I think you "flopped" on not getting that Henry 20-ga SS we handled at the KCKS Cabelas. It had the most unbelievably beautiful wood stock, and the fit and finish were superb.

That shotgun was ready for both the range, and to hang on the wall when at home! :)

Don't think that I haven't checked to see if it's still there, PT. It's long gone, however, hanging on someone else's wall somewhere in KC (+/-). Still scouting...

Understood. That :cry: flip-flopping result catches a lot of folk. Sorry about it being "long gone"....

The SS in .308 is still at my LGS.
Fear of the recoil as much as another cartridge to reload keep fro buying it.
$425 is a very appealing price.
If I come across a .243 or .223 caliber SS I doubt I'll hesitate.

Way to go, tad! That's a really nice looking rifle. I'm late to the party here, first day home with the new knee was Friday, March 1. It's going great, but I hadn't been back on my lap top 'till today. The interchangeability of barrels sure should be possible among barrel blanks of a like size; it'll be interesting what Henry says about it.

Hope your new knee deal works out and you can get back to playing with your 30-30 Henry single. Henry Tech wrote back "Thank you for your interest. I'm sorry, the platform was not designed for bbl interchange and spare bbls are not being offered as separate accessories" - which was what everybody kind of thought they would say. It wouldn't surprise me though if they were to offer single barrels for sale in the future, because whether they knew or it or not, the single platform is already designed to swap different caliber barrels on the same receiver. I think they would sell a lot more singles if people new they could add a different caliber just by buying a barrel which would probably be less than half the price of a new gun...
