Alarming trend taking shape!

Post by Redthies » Fri Nov 30, 2018 11:11 pm

Well, perhaps it’s not exactly alarming, but I’ve noticed a growing trend of people getting a Henry .22 and following up rather quickly with a .357 Big Boy. I happen to think it’s a great duo. Post pics of your pair if you have them!

Congratulations on owning two fine rifles. ;)

That's exactly what I did. Can't have enough. My next one will be a long ranger 243.

Well, I'm in the same camp, but went at it backwards. I started with the .357 and ended up with a .22.

Guess I’m in the same club! Here are my two. A Big Boy 357 and a Golden Boy 22LR. Love them!

Well, not to spoil the fun or be a party pooper but I dont' see me buying any more Henry rifles. I have the .327 Federal Mag BBS. It just had issues with it and would rather not purchase another. That's why I opted for the Winchester 1892 .357. I also have a JM Marlin in .44 mag. The Winchester shoots fine with the buckhorn sight but am having a Marlbes peep installed on it. I will say I REALLY enjoy the forum. There's a bunch of good folks here and I enjoy reading the threads. There are quite a few of you I could call "friends" and hope one day we'll meet.
