For starters, I would like to see a Henry break action, over and under available in 410. 20, and 12 guage; but the one thing I would absolutely loving love would be the Big Boy Steel Carbines offered with a true Carbonia finish...some know it as the "Python" blue, or Colt Royal Blue. In short, a nicely polished real blued receiver and barrel.

Welcome to the Forums from the Show-Me-State! From your moniker, I read (if I'm correct) that you are a Nam vet....thanks for your service.

Henry is getting closer to your wish for a s/g. Early in 2017, they will release their first s/g lines, and there are coming Henry break-actions, but not in O/U config; rather in single-shot config. We're getting there. Bet they will be sharp-looking long guns!

I would like to see a Henry "Trapper" rifle in 45-70, 16".barrel, straight grip, in a all weather finish; oh, and a Skinner Alaskan rear sight along with an appropriate bead sight up front.

A new version of an Ithaca M49 falling block single shot .22 would be neat, and a great beginner gun for kids.

I too would love to see Henry make a falling block single shot rifle, and offer a number of calibers. I would like to see it in .223 since I keep a lot of it on hand and it is good for varmints here around the farm, the larger ones. If they did make one, I would of course love to see the octagonal barrel, a nice sight, and make that falling block lever something special. I have looked at a couple single shot falling blocks, but not bought, they just didn't "speak to me."

I like the Ruger Number One, but it isn't currently available in my choice of caliber.... and the used guns bring a premium price.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

I would be all in on a 444 and a 358 Win. Does Henry make a 35 Remington?

I know others have mentioned an 1873 clone but there are so many other companies that make them it would be a hard market to break into. But not many make a .410 lever. I have a Winchester 9410 and its fun to shoot but doesn't have the smooth action of a Henry.
Got your wish! :)

I haven't read through this entire thread yet, but the one thing that comes to mind is a take-down version of the "Long Ranger". I'll read through the rest of the threat and probably get some inspiration from some of the ideas.

I am thrilled with the selection already offered. Get the Henry catalog just by asking for it.

Lot's of great suggestions-I think a Small Game Carbine with case hardened receiver in .22mag would be awesome. Also the same layout in .357.

I'd like to see them make pistol caliber pumps along the lines of the Colt Lightning. In steel please....I don't care much for the shiny bling.

MORE bolt action rifles in 22lr!

:) :) :) :) :)

Below are some sweet bolt action rifles in the CZ brand.

Single round to 5 rounds magazines.

Adult size, in wood, walnut or in another type of wood, AND in lighter weight materials for older people and for people with disabilities.

Bolt action rifle like the CZ 455 Lux in 22lr. One here now.

CZ 455 Scout rifle - 22lr. One 452 Scout is here now.

CZ 455 Training rifle - 22lr. Don't own one yet.

CZ 527 Lux .223 rifle. One here now.

USE good iron sights with NO fluid, colored green or red dots on a rear or front target.

Make them so that you can put a nice military leather sling on them when you feel like using a sling too.

Why stainless steel over the hard chrome on their all weather rifles? Stainless steel is not as corrosive resistant as hard chrome from my experience and from what I read.
