Glad I found you

Post by DMK » Tue Apr 14, 2020 10:03 am

Have fantasized of owning a lever action rifle for many years, so the other day I took the plunge and purchased a Big Boy (44 Mag). Now that I own one, I have a lot of questions, so thank you for accepting me to the board.

Welcome from Nebraska. Good bunch of people willing to answer here. Enjoy your Henry.
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.
