I've never had a centerfire Henry apart. I wonder if they are as easy to work on as the rimfires?

I've looked at these Henry Videos several times and the process doesn't appear to be very difficult :

Thanks. It never occurred to me to look there.

So many Henrys, so little money! :(

I need to either find a second job (and have no time to shoot what I buy), rob a bank (and be in prison or get shot), or win the lottery (need to buy a ticket)!

Inheriting money is out (all my family elders are dead and nobody had any monetary wealth anyway) and it is too late to marry it (after 41 years, I don't want to start over).

I guess I could find a rich mistress to keep me and .....
Never mind!

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.

"herd" .. :o .. talk about an understatement .... talk of selling 20 sure moves your collection to a level way above Herd status .. :D

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.

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.

I need to watch those videos. The ejector never falls out on the rimfires.
