New Guy from the arid Southwest

Post by Rock185 » Sat Feb 24, 2024 1:46 am

Hello, New member from Rim Country, Arizona here. Have owned Winchester and Marlin lever guns for years, but only recently acquired a Henry, a steel Big Boy in .357. Saw mention of this forum and decided to join, and maybe learn a thing or two about Henrys.

Welcome from Michigan. That 357 is a popular item here, good choice. Ask questions or just join in with banter. It's a good group of people without the politics in some other sites.

Welcome indeed from Western North Carolina. Congrats on your Henry. I too have the BBS in 357 mag and love it. Enjoy the forum. Good place to be as a Henry owner.

Welcome from South Central Oklahoma, where it's green instead of brown. :lol: I have a couple Henry's and one is a .357 Carbine and she's a shooter. Think of the forum as a family, and jump right in and post, ask questions, share. Feel free to post about just about anything, hunting, fishing, boats, cars, kids, the dog. Pics are nice, we (I) love pics. Like a family, we might rag on you, but all in good fun. Unlike some forums you might have visited, we won't be mean. (Mods don't allow it and most of the folks here are good folks anyway.)

share... Here's Mine! I made a cherry case for it in the woodshop.

It's done.jpg

She's a shooter with the brass peep from Skinner Sights.

Hey Rock. Welcome from Nebraska. Another BBS357 shooter here. Love mine.
As the marine showed, pictures are greatly appreciated. Enjoy your time on the forum and shooting.
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.
