Henry Rifle Forums

I don't know if the permit below is for real but I sure hope it is ..

The address looks a bit strange, but that could just be because I don't know that much about addresses in the USA. It certainly is a very interesting document - thank you for posting it.

That's pretty cool !!

Would be interesting to look into. I'm not sure when concealed permits and licenses to purchase became law in each state. 1950s seems pretty early for gun control!?

I was thinking this was going to be about concealing a Henry Classic.

Hyde Park, NY is just north of NY City .... I do know that NY City has required (a hard to get) permit for a very long time

Trying to conceal a Henry isn't real easy. Everyone asks why am I limping?

True. NYC is probably the city with the longest history of requiring a permit. May be others, but I can remember people complaining about it even back in the 60s.

It would appear to be a true story.

Just tell 'em you got a rocket in your pocket

It looks very similar to my old paper permit.

Washington state still uses paper.

She refused Secret Service and drove her own car. Carry was to at least ease their mind that she at least had some form of protection. True it is.

ER did have a CC permit.

Ahh yes, that classic old comedy line...."Is that a Henry rifle in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"
