Newly Registered...From NC

Post by BigBoy45 » Mon Jul 10, 2017 1:01 am

Good Evening. My name is Kevin. I am a Henry-Holic.

In November of 2016, I bought my first Henry.. Based on advice from Mr. Imperato, it was the H001T Frontier .22. In May of this year, I bought the 8 gun Henry Display Cabinet...and began filling it up. I have one slot left. My Henry Collection now consists of 2 AR7s, my H001T, a Golden Boy H004, a Big Boy Carbine H006M in .357, a Big Boy H006CL in .45, a Mares Leg H006ML, in .357, an Octagonal Barrel Pump H003TM, in .22 Magnum, an Evil Roy H001TMER, in .22 Magnum, and the humble Henry Lever Action H001M, in .22 Magnum. The two AR7's and the Mares Leg are stored in the lower storage area of the cabinet. That left all eight slots in the cabinet for my full sized rifles.

Now, the question is...which Henry should I buy to fill the last slot in my cabinet? I am considering the Original Henry Rifle, but I haven't decided on which caliber yet. I am not a hunter, so the other high-powered Henry's do not appeal to me. But owning an Original...that does.

Showing my Henry Pride!

Hi Kevin and welcome to the forum. Lots of great people here. My vote is for the Original Henry if you are wanting one. Everytime I am wanting something Im not satisfied until I own it. Substitutes dont ever take care of want that want is just still there. Al

Welcome from the Shenandoah Valley, VA. Congrats on the really nice collection of Henrys. If it were me, I'd fill that last slot with a Wildlife edition 45-70, but it sounds like you need to go with the Henry Original in 45LC....

Welcome from Michigan! Sounds like a great collection and cabinet!
Maybe a personalized engraved Henry for that last spot!

Thanks for the welcome fellow Henry-holics.

I decided on the Henry Original 1860 in 44-40. Wanted to stay as close to the original as possible. Also bought the super nice custom gun case for it...so I still have one slot left in my case. YES!!!! It moved our total in the other thread to 355!

Love to see some pics of your Henry 1860 and a range report....nothing fancy, just some big cowboy bullet holes will do!
