Henry Rifle Forums

I have always had a need/desire for a henry Big Boy Brass in 44 mag. I was finally pushed over the edge and bought one last Friday off of GB. I got an exceptional deal on it and cannot wait to get the shiny new toy in my hands. I already reload for my Ruger SBH Bisley so got everything I need to keep this Big Boy fed! I look forward to participating in this forum. I will post pics when I get it in my hands, it is presently in bound

Hell, I was looking for a hairy Potter reference to the dismal Swamp. Glad you have joined us. Enjoy your Henry.

Welcome from a former swamp dweller.
I grew up in Chesapeake just outside of the modern limit of the swamp. Development in the area shrunk the territory once covered by it. It has a pretty amazing history. I remember having black bears in my backyard when I was six.
Enjoy that beautiful new Henry.

Yup bears everywhere, I also have a farm in eastern nc just below the dismal and that is where I hunt and shoot. More bear than deer. I love my levers and favorite caliber is my 4570s. Marlin and ruger.

Welcome to the forum! I read some of the info on your link, and it said there are only TWO natural lakes in the whole state of Virginia? Is that right? I guess the others are man made/dam reservoirs?

I was thinkin maybe it was the Okefenokee swamp. Welcome aboard from the swamps of Virginia. Ive been to the Okefenokee swamp and went thru it on a boat it was way cool. Should be able to find a use for a 44 Henry in the swamp.

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum from KY.

Welcome from KC, where it's getting kinda swamy, with 8-10" of rain since last Friday!

Congrats on the Brass Henry! Look forward to hearing how you like it and how it shoots for you!

Hope Hurricane MIchael spares you!

Welcome here from SW Virginia and Marlin Owners (I'm 336 Fan over there).

Thanks for sharing your pictures. I can't get enough of seeing brass octagon Henry rifles. They are so beautiful! You got a fine piece of character in your stock too. Suggest you might want to get a coat of Renaissance Wax on the brass and wood. https://www.amazon.com/Renaissance-XTL- ... ssance+wax

Very nice rifle mrguvna,welcome.
