Uberti

[Sir Henry]

Its good to see you posting here John. Welcome to the forum.

I'll second that. I'm glad you are here.

Hickok45 did a couple of videos on his Uberti Henry, and he seemed to like it a lot. More recently, when he got a Henry Original, he said it was even better than the Uberti.

Puberty makes some really good guns, though. From Colt SAA clones to Winchester 1866 and 1873 lever guns, to cap and ball revolvers... all excellent products.

Did he tell you the Uberti is $1000 cheaper The 1873 Winc is a big improved over the Henry rifle and is the best action ever made .

I think when people buy that level of firearms they aren't concerned with cost so much.

My duelers are works of art below and cost $2995 new in 1982 . In about 2014 I bought and sold them for under $1500 and they were new and unfired and perfect in every way shape or form .The Parker below I can sell for under $200 and is new unfired too and new cost was under $200 . So sometime the high dollar are not a good buy . A real Henry built in the late 1800 in used up condition and not safe to fire will bring over $10,000 and ammo is almost impossible to find . You can shoot the Uberti and not take a big hit in the wallet . The 1873 Winc action is top of the food chain out and 1/2 the cost too boot .

I hear you on cost. I collect Henry rimfires because they are so affordable. Sure a lot cheaper than a 9422 or an39A. But then again I end up modifying mine and have two or three times what I paid for them. And if I ever so them I wouldn't get back even the original value. But I plan on dying with them.
