Thanks for taking us along with you on this. This is good to hear. I knew you would not come out on the short end of the deal.

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.......

Just received a replacement gun from Henry. I'm going to try to make it to the range tomorrow to test it out. Hope all goes well. Stay tuned........

Well, I was able to sneak out to the range for a few minutes this evening. Forgot I didn't have much ammo on hand. But, I was able to fire 20 rounds of Winchester 110 gr jhp and 10 rounds of Hornady 125 gr Critical Defense FTX. All 30 rounds cycled without a hitch. I need to do a little more testing before I completely put this debacle to bed, but so far so good!
