I hear Ya Ed, however, my collection is limited due to finances, so I have to keep my priorities in the right place when making a gun purchase. Don't own a lot of options.
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

Re: Brass butt plate coverings
I wouldn't discount hunting with a brass rifle.
The 'flash' could be an issue but it think its overstated - considering all the other things I see 'hunters' doing that are much more likely to inhibit success than the possibility of a little 'flash'.

They're not really yours until you void the warrenty.My Henry has a few character marks on it now, just from wear and tear, and packing it horseback in the bush. All good.

Re: Brass butt plate coverings
Totally disagree, Whenever I hunt, I am not stupid, wear appropriate clothing and anti scent preparedness. Don't need a shiny gun to defeat all other efforts!!!

Re: Brass butt plate coverings
One thing I do with my stock cover, is put a layer of plastic saran wrap over the brass butt plate to keep it off the leather and avoid turning the brass green. Works good.
