I've never had a centerfire Henry apart. I wonder if they are as easy to work on as the rimfires?
A friendly place to talk about Henry Repeating Arms.....and just about anything else

I've looked at these Henry Videos several times and the process doesn't appear to be very difficult :Sir Henry wrote:I've never had a centerfire Henry apart. I wonder if they are as easy to work on as the rimfires?

"herd" .. .. talk about an understatement .... talk of selling 20 sure moves your collection to a level way above Herd status ..Sir Henry wrote:I need to sell off part of my herd of rifles that I don't shoot any more. I'm in the process of selling 20 and they could generate up to $10,000. That might buy me a few Henry centerfire rifles.

Haven't had the 45/70 open yet but the Big Boy is about the same as the Golden Boy. Slight differences but as much as you've worked on the rimfires you'll be right at home inside a Big Boy.Sir Henry wrote:I've never had a centerfire Henry apart.

I need to watch those videos. The ejector never falls out on the rimfires.Squatch wrote:Haven't had the 45/70 open yet but the Big Boy is about the same as the Golden Boy.

Once you've had either open a couple of times. It will be quite easy and natural to work on. Like the rimfire's you have to be remember to watch the ejector when you pull the bolt and place it. Dab of white grease helps hold it in place.
