Not sure why the problems but if I am reading Henry's commitment correctly I think they will get the issues worked out.

They definitely do eventually, but shouldn't have to if it had been built right to begin with and fully checked out before shipping it.

Re: The #1 Thing You Like About Your Henry Over Other Rifles You Have Owned.
Mags, I had that lever popping issue with the "new old stock" 30-30 I bought a couple of years ago, along with the peep sight lacking sufficient adjustment to get on target. A phone call to Henry resulted in a new lever and a handful of rear peep sights (enough parts to make sure I could get it right) arriving in a couple of days (it's not far from here to Rice Lake ), so I fixed it myself. I have felt a need to tinker a bit with a lot of things I get, I suppose I expect to, but I'm the kind of guy who repaints brand new duck decoys to "get 'em right" .

For me it was the chambering, other positives are the lack of a cross bolt safety and side eject.
The lack of a loading gate is a real negative for me.

I've been wondering if I contacted HenryCS if they would send me the anti-popping lever. I feel better about asking after reading they did that for you. Thanks for sharing that.

Well, the response I got, they won't send me a no popping lever. However, the person I asked didn't seem to know much of the issue; more or less said something else was likely going on. Anyway, I replied with more history on the issue and we'll see what I response I get from that, maybe on Monday.

That's odd. I talked directly with someone at the Rice Lake plant, though; I think that made a difference. I have a Bayonne made 30-30 that needed the part, for sure it was early production. And there's a noticeable difference in the configuration of the end of the lever. Maybe they need a picture.

I think the person I emailed is in Bayonne. My .30-30 was also made there. Do you have pictures showing the difference?

No, I didn't take any before I replaced it, but I think you could find some with a search. I remember finding a thread on lever popping, there was a DIY discussion before Henry corrected the engagement of the lever, and replaced the poppers . I bought that new old stock rifle at a Cabelas about a year and a half ago, but the thread was quite a bit older. There is definitely a difference in the internal end of the lever; it cured mine. I was E-mailing and/or phoning with someone at Rice Lake, but didn't save anything on it.
Edit: I found my post on the subject on this site, January 11, 2018, but I didn't say who I talked to at Rice Lake .
