Re: Brooklyn vs Bayonne
Is the H001 now made in Rice Lake?

Our sweet, tack driving, beautiful former Henry lever action RF rifles (Three) and one CF rifle were made in NJ.
ALL of them were wonderful rifles.
I may still get that one HENRY bolt action rifle. It is a lighter weight rifle and will work better for me.

Re: Brooklyn vs Bayonne
My H004 was made in Brooklyn and my H001 was made in New Jersey. Both are beautiful in fit and finish and function perfectly.Nam Vet wrote:Do you know where in Bklyn?
I believe that the Brooklyn facility was located on 8th street in an area known as Park Slope.

The receiver cover tang on my H001L is marked Rice Lake, was the gun it self made there or just the cover!RcJr wrote:Maybe not, my rimfire is stamped "Rice Lake". I used to have family that lived in Rice Lake many years ago btw.

Re: Brooklyn vs Bayonne
Both of my children - Henry #1 and Henry #2 - were born in Bayonne.
I stripped the heavy brown finish off the H001T and found a beautiful walnut stock hiding underneath it. I would have done the same with the H003T, but I didn't want to tackle the 'cob' forend.

Re: Brooklyn vs Bayonne
All of my .22 caliber Henry's were made in Brooklyn. Never had a problem with any of them.
H001 purchased in 1999
H004 purchased in 2001
H001TM purchased in 2009
The only Henry I have that was made in Bayonne is the Big Boy in .44 magnum
My BBS in .45-70 and my BBS .357 magnum were both made at Rice Lake. I had problems with the mag tube on the .45-70 but Henry redesigned the barrel and mag tube and upgraded mine.
