Army vet with first Henry

Post by Oldbrass » Tue Sep 08, 2020 12:08 pm

I received a Henry golden boy from my brother on my 58th birthday. I'm a retired army vet, avid shooter and reloader. The same ol ARs and such have become routine. This little Henry is actually FUN to shoot I couldn't be happier.. thanx for having me.. Ken

Welcome to the forum. I seem to shoot my levers a lot more than my AR's, they can be habit forming.

Welcome to the forum from CT. When I bought my first ever gun, a Henry H001, the sales manager at Cabelas walked over, took one look at the rifle, smiled and said, "You are gonna have a lotta fun with that!" He knew what he was talking about. Glad you joined us.

Welcome to the forum. That is a great rifle and is very pleasing to look at. Mine does get some attention.
