Got one inbound

Post by beaverislander » Thu Mar 25, 2021 8:48 am

Should have another Henry at my FFL's tomorrow. I wanted to wait until Mid April to combine a trip to the mainland but with the gun grabbers all up in arms I'm thinking about making a special trip Saturday to pick it up (add $117 to the purchase price.) I know I shouldn't worry about a lever action but these are strange times, and I do. I'll feel better when it's in my safe :-)

I bought a H006M several months ago - just before I started reading about the x model, so I put the unfired "Classic" in the safe with the idea of selling it. Now I'm not so sure I can do that as it's a beautiful rifle with outstanding wood and I do have room for it :-)
They're both beautiful rifles in their own way....it's kinda like having a muscle car and a luxury car in your garage.

I like your analogy on the rifles/cars. Yes, keep that Classic.

I picked up my new Henry yesterday, however I left my cell phone/camera in our vehicle over there so I can't show it off yet.
Another analogy that came to mind is "Beauty and the Beast."
I'll show you later :-)
