Hello everyone! Glad to have found this site of fellow Henry lovers. I only have 2, a very customized .22 Magnum, and a regular Big Boy Steel .44 Magnum with a UTG 3x9x32 Compact scope. Looking forward to posting pictures of them and the custom display I made to show them. Which brings me to ask the question of, How do I do that here?

Welcome from the Show-Me-State!

Looking forward to your pics of your customized .22 Magnum & the Big Boy with UTG sight. A couple of LGS owners I know primarily sell UGS optics...they say they are the best out there.

Enjoy your visits on the Forums.

Welcome to the forum! As was stated you can use photobucket or use the "attachment" at the bottom left after you click on "reply" and then you can post pictures from your photo library from your computer.

Welcome aboard,
Here is a link to Daytime Dave's computer asset thread on photo hosting websites. http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=165

I use Photobucket, once you get it set up it is pretty easy to use. Once you have a photo selected there it is easy to copy the Share this photo selection of the Url listed as IMG then paste that link into your post here.

Thank you one and all for the welcome to the forum. Here's the pictures. As you can see, on the .22 magnum, I had the front sight and hood, barrel band, receiver cover, and large loop lever chrome plated. I purchased, from Henry, the Varmint stock, and found a guy on Ebay that specializes in pre 64 Winchester parts, both new and old. He's out of Maine. He calls himself Winchester Bob. I bought the Saddle Ring from him, as the one from Henry, no offense, is not as beefy or authentic looking. It was $30. Then I just drilled the receiver cover to accommodate it. I just recently added a Simmons 3x9x30 silver scope. On the Big Boy Steel .44 magnum, I put another saddle ring, but since there isn't a removable receiver cover, I had to use an adhesive tape, like whats used on automobile emblems. It's very solid. I installed a UTG 3x9x32 Compact scope, and changed out the medium UTG rings that came with it for UTG Low Pro mounts. And since the eye relief on that scope is only about 3 3/4", I had to turn the Henry picatinny rail 180 degrees so I could move the scope closer to me. I still have to zero both guns with the scopes.

These are speed loaders that I made for the .44 Magnum. I also made 16 for my .22 magnum. Very simple to make, and very quick to use.

So you use an inner magazine tube as a speedloader? Can you give us more details?
