Mark --- Thought I saw a post of someone buying an Evil Roy. Searched and found that AZplinkster reported getting one in the "How Many?" thread on Sat Dec 08, 2018. http://henryrifleforums.com/search.php? ... 4&sr=posts

Another was a range report on an Evil Roy by larry 44: http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.p ... roy#p74076

Didn't check any further, but the search term was simply "evil roy."

Mark,
I would think for some it's a matter of "do I like the silver/nickel finish?" and, perhaps more importantly, the Evil Roy comes with buckhorn rear sights, vs. the Skinner on the SGC.
Different strokes, but life is full of trade-offs...

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.......

Don't listen to the little guy with wings on one shoulder. Listen to the little Evil Roy on the other...

VERY good point Evan. Just happened across it after we talked. Skinners would probably be better on my old eyes!
After all..I did end up scoping my BBS.

I have looked at it online for some time. I do like it and it gets good reviews on Bud's website. Not super crazy about having "Evil Roy" carved in the Buttstock though. Other than that minor issue, I really like the look.

Thanks PT, I did do a search, perhaps incorrectly about the Evil Roy before I posted and found nothing. Probably ordering the SGC tommorow. I appreciate your links and info.
