The 1860 Henry, the first "assault weapon ?"

I watched this video on the 1860 Henry and found it quite interesting. Some of you may have already seen this.Its only about 10 minutes long.

Yep! Wouldn't mind having one myself. I'll check Walmart, see if they've got any in.
I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

Never seen one at WW, heck in fact I'm pretty sure I've never seen one in person anywhere.

Probably not, I was kidding, of course. You " might " stumble upon one at a gun show, with a collector.

I have an 1860 Henry and you can all come over and take a look. Not all that old but I still like it.
