lever vs pump .22LR
I'm about to do some gun trading and want a new .22 rifle. Anyone know of issues with either the lever or pump Henry. I do like both and lean toward the lever gun with short barrel and big loop.

Re: lever vs pump .22LR
Just an FYI. If you type this into the search box upper right, "H003t pump," you'll find some threads on the Henry pump.
If you're considering the lever-action carbine, H001L, my SGC (H001TLP) is basically the same rifle only with different sights on it. It is a very smooth lever-action, and accurate, too. The other very accurate rimfire Henry I've shot is the classic H001.
Since these are both Henrys, you can't miss having a great rifle. Have fun in the choosing.

Re: lever vs pump .22LR
We have a Henry pump 22LR and three Henry lever 22LRs - no issues with any of them (other than changing out the sights with peeps). They have all been excellent rifles. You may want to handle the pump before you decide on it though, because it has a pretty stiff action that takes some getting used to...

Re: lever vs pump .22LR
There is one BIG ISSUE with Henrys. Once you own one, you’ll buy more and more, and your other guns will be used less and less! I’m partial to the H001TLP myself as well, and my .357.txray357 wrote:I'm about to do some gun trading and want a new .22 rifle. Anyone know of issues with either the lever or pump Henry.

Re: lever vs pump .22LR
I have one of each - a H001T and a H003T, and they are both fantastic rifles. They are slick and accurate, and great fun to shoot. The pump needs to be cycled like you mean it, but once you get the hang of it you won't get the smile off your face.txray357 wrote:I'm about to do some gun trading and want a new .22 rifle.

Re: lever vs pump .22LR
I have one of each and agree with Sir Henry get one of each. The Small Game Carbine Henry is the best lever action 22 ever. The pump is a great gun and you will need to put at least 500 rounds thru it before it loosens up. Like Les said cycle it like you mean it. My pump is very accurate.

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.......

Re: lever vs pump .22LR
I have a Rossi pump. Good rifle, but for sentimental reasons I wish it were a Henry lever.

You’ll be kicking yourself for getting rid of that neat little Winchester 62 copy.
