Paying it forward

Post by daytime dave » Mon May 09, 2016 8:37 pm

I mentioned earlier that I had the ability to post three plain text links in the place of the one Henry image link. Everyone liked the link to Henry, I want to give sponsor Skinner Sights a link, so I am using the three link setting. That leaves me with a free link.

Sir Henry and I have decided to give that third link to a deserving small business, individual or service for at least a month at a time as demand allows. We would like the link to be Henry related or shooting related.

If you know of anyone who might like to have their business or service highlighted there, have them join the forum and contact me. We would like to help.

It's nice to pay it forward when you can.

I don't have a business or service to recommend, but I do want to say that is what is great about this forum.

Thanks for being so generous and thoughtful, as always.

I agree. Daytime Dave and Sir Henry, you're providing an outstanding service to the Henry Rifle community.

I'm thinking TwoSticksLeather might be good choice. The owners name is Cha Nopa Uhah and this is a quote from him:
I've got the biggest horse, the best buckskins, and the sharpest tomahawk. I sleep in a buffalo robe every night. I've got the prettiest dog and the meanest girl. I can out hunt, out fish, out knife, out gun, out gamble, out swim, out run, and out cuss any man this side of the Mississippi. Ghosts sit around camp fires and tell stories about me.
This link takes you to some of his work. You might recognize some of the rifles in the pictures as mine.

Sir Henry and I came up with the first "third link".

Two sticks leather.

I'd like to hear from all of you who else should get some exposure. We'll keep a list and try and get everyone on. Make some suggestions.

I have buttstock wraps made by three different people and Two Sticks is by far the best quality. His custom work is great and he followed my directions perfectly. His logo is small and looks cool. I've seen others where the makers mark is overpowering.

It's time to think of someone to put up for July.

Any one have a suggestion?

Jon Klein's Gunstockcover.com is a good site and his service was quick and professional. He has several Henry rifles on his site with his work on them. Might be a conflict though with the other company on here.

Having no other nominees, it's gun stock cover. Thanks Ranch Roper.

Ok, that time of the month.

Submit any suggestions for the free number three position in the links on the forum banner.

Dave,

This company may have a more limited audience, since our Forums primarily focus on rifles. But I have enjoyed learning about knives on our knife sub-Forum, and even have started a very small knife collection.

Recently I ordered my new Swiss Army knife through DLT Trading http://www.dlttrading.com/. They have a large selection of knife brands, sheaths, sharpening equipment, etc. They are located in northern WI. Also some assistance I got from their CS was a positive experience. Reminded me somewhat of the great Henry CS we enjoy.

So if you would like to check them out, this would be my suggestion.

We are well overdue for another person or site to occupy the third spot. Any suggestions?

With no suggestions, I picked one myself. A fine small business, Baker Airguns. I have made purchases from them and they are the best. I have bought new, used and had repairs made.

If you choose a used air gun, buy with confidence. The item description will tell you if it is only a non functioning collector piece, or what it shot when they shot it. There are not that many non shooters. They make sure it is as described. I especially like to see what they get in used.
