.45-70 wild life
.45-70 wild life
Ok, so after adding my youngest son to the Henry family, I got Jonesing for a new one myself. I have always wanted a .45-70 as I often take fishing trips way up north where the big guy natives roam. I had originally planned to grab the brass version when it came out but glad that I hesitated because this wild life model is to die for! Or should I say, survive for? Lol anyway, just wanted to share with my fellow Henry family.

That rifle sir is defective (just read the Henry quality control thread for proof). It must be destroyed at once. Please PM me for instructions on where to send the rifle, at your cost of course, for destruction. I will take care of the offending junk, malfunctioning, and certainly dangerous firearm for the good of mankind.
Just kidding. I'm jealous.

Re: .45-70 wild life
Very nice. Such a purdy rifle! I had pretty much decided on the brass wildlife edition 45/70 when I found my normal brass 45/70 for such a deal I couldn't pass it up.

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: .45-70 wild life
Nice! Looks very pretty. I would probably be concern with scratching it. It would probably only come out on nice days to play. Yet, we would probably play the whole day. Then again, I don't know. I understand they have a kick. But, I don't have one to have first hand knowledge of. However, it still looks nice!
