Henrys that once were...

[PT7]

I was working on organizing my picture files this evening, and saw the Henrys that once were residents in my gun cabinet.
Thought I share some photos as I went down memory lane, especially remembering all the great range days I had with these rifles.
Just for fun, and for you to enjoy.

[Sir Henry]

Don't tell me you sold them???

[Les]

You had some really nice Henry's. How many do you still have?

[Bish1309]

Wow, nice "ex" collection!

Yes, all have hit the trail into the sunset.
One sold 2016 mid-year: the Bronze Big Boy
Two sold 2015 fall: the .22 Magnum and Steel Big Boy
As for the .30-30 rifle, Henry RAC took it back after the popping-open lever action could not be repaired. They shipped it back/forth two times and worked on it in their shop. I didn't replace it at that time.

During both time frames I had some heavy-duty medical needs, and also in the fall I had extensive van repairs.
These dictated the need to acquire some financial help, and the Henrys were fluid. Also sold my Benelli 12-gauge to help resolve the finances.

All this worked out quite well. I was able to meet especially the medical needs without any debt incurred. What could be better?

I have since bought my H001TLP, and love the SGC in .22LR. I have a Henry, and that's cool. It should never leave home!!

Golly, I didn't know I was part of the staff!
From what other staff folk have said, there are those quite large monthly paychecks....however, none are coming here!!

[Sir Henry]

You might not be staff but you receive the same pay they do.

Actually I like the story you did post in the contest.

[RanchRoper]

Great story. Thanks for sharing. Life happens and we do what we have to sometimes. Glad you have a Henry again.

Agreed. Post the story.

You could temporarily demote him.
