Henry Rifle Forums

Just got an email from Henry. They have a New Model coming out. Its call the AXE and it looks similar to a mares leg in 410. I will post a picture tonight of it as I cannot get it out of my email here at work. It has the new sidegate receiver and works just like the new sidegate models. do.

fascinating .... that's a model I wouldn't have anticipated

Me neither Jim but maybe they know more about market demands than we do. I sure do see alot of people asking for sidegate models in pistol calibers. Ive also seen people wanting single shots in 45 Colt. It will be interesting to see if any new models are coming out for the shot show.

that's a model I wouldn't have anticipated

Same here.

I can hardly imagine something like this would have more requests to be produced than say, a side gate PC rifle/carbine.

It would be interesting to see a listing of submitted requests for designs and the number for each.

Found a pic:

happy to see a side gate model that isn't shiny brass

This also might be a sign of things to come in the sidegate models with the blue receiver.

Thanks for getting that pic up there Gene also.

Could be. I passed this around locally (including pic) and a couple guys think it would be a great truck/tractor gun.

I am wondering why I would ever need something like that for any reason. I think there would be better new things to bring out. Add a couple pistol grip models to go with all those straight grip rifles they have now. I want a case colored pistol grip 35 Remington. Prefer octagon but would take a round barrel.
