HENRY .308 WITH QUICK RELEASE SCOPE

Post by Rifleman54 » Tue Nov 08, 2016 11:12 am

I purchased a new Henry .308 and installed a Vortex scope with a quick release AD-Delta scope mount on an EGW rail. I'm attaching some pics with how I did it in case anyone is interested. Finally my favorite cartridge on the best lever action produced, way to go Henry :D .

Nice set up and congrats on the new Henry.

Lastly, welcome from Indiana. I hope to see some future range and/or hunting reports on your new Henry.

Welcome from the Show-Me-State!

And you "showed us" a beautiful Henry rifle....thanks for the great photos. Enjoy it.

BTW, are you a lefty? Curious, because I noticed your hammer extension is mounted on left side of rifle. Maybe I'm mis-reading the mounting. Anyway, if you are a lefty, how do you like shooting a Henry? I'd think the right side brass ejection might be a small challenge? I often see the Henry pages where they post "OK for Left-Handed Shooters."

Thank you for sharing. Welcome to the forum. Quick detach without iron sights? I might want something a little more snug!

Thanks to you all for your comments, in answer to some questions I'm ambidextrous I usually shoot my rifles left handed depending whether I'm in a stand and where the game is and I shoot my pistols right handed most of the time. Playing basketball is a riot trying to remember which arm to shoot with :D . Unfortunately this model does not come with iron sights but word has it they may soon so I will have the front sight installed and address the rear on the rail when hunting in close range. I'll post the "Big One" when I get him with the new Henry. Of course we all know there is always a "Bigger One" out there somewhere that's why we do what we do :) .
