Old guy with a new Henry

daviscc · Post by **daviscc** » Wed Oct 18, 2017 9:59 pm

Old guy here from Oklahoma who finally bought my first Henry Brass BB in .45 Colt. Already have 50 rounds through it and am really impressed with the action and accuracy. I have looked at them for years, and decided I had waited long enough. I own MANY semi-auto's, AR's, wheel guns and rimfires but no lever guns. Now I have it!!

Welcome from Alberta. That is a sweet rifle and a real fun caliber.

Careful one lever leads to another lever which leads to another lever. Then your selling autos to make room for levers. Welcome from Colorado.

Just curious about what y'all think is old? I'll be 64 in December but don't think that I'm over the hill yet.

Well, I will be 73 in December so I guess I fit the definition of "old" However, I don't feel that old, and refuse to act like it either.

Well to be quite honest, I did sell a Sig P226 to buy the Henry. I have been slowly moving toward single action wheel guns and now lever action. Still enjoy shooting the semi's etc. but am really having fun with SA and reloading for them. Even have my granddaughter shooting SA and she loves them.

Welcome to the family from Central VA. Ok huh? My daughter and her family are in OK, near the Texas border, not far from Wichita Falls. He teaches there, both are former Air Force. She has a small boarding facility and they love it.
