Thanks for the leads, much appreciated! I am speaking to a reputable Henry Gold dealer near me this weekend. I have it on good information that they can place an order for me next week for the model I'm looking for, directly with Henry. Wait time is unknown, could be weeks or months before it comes in, but I'm willing to put a deposit down & wait, if needed. Price quoted was lower than MSRP, but not as good as I had hoped ($1,149.00 +tax). To be expected when a product is in high demand & short supply.

Well that’s goods news keep up posted. I was just pure lucky to get mine a couple weeks ago. A buddy called me and said they showed one HO12GCC. I called them and was told something didn’t look right and he has to check the warehouse and call me back. Ten minutes later he called and said he tucked it away in his office. Next morning I was there waiting for the doors to open up. I had to order the large lever for it but Henry got it to me within 3 days. Good luck.

That's awesome. Sometimes you just get lucky and are at the right place, at the right time, and it pays off. I'd love to see you post some pictures of the receiver, to check it out. Seems like the last two products I've purchased have been hard to find, including this Henry. Hopefully I can get it before the end of 2022.

I got mine by pure persistence. I read the news online morning and evenings. I made it part of that routine to check the Sportsman website. Having the gun bookmarked made it a quick check. After months it became available and I ordered it on the spot. I had also used Sportman's 'Notify Me...' The 'Notify Me' came two days later, which was dumb 'cause they were by then again out of stock. Same story for the .30-30 Sidegate.

Good point Mags, I did the same bookmarking vendors and using the "Notify Me" features. I may have a lead on one right now. Waiting to confirm that this week, hopefully.

it might pay you to call Henry's customer service and request help in locating one like you want .... have info ready to give them as to the name and location of your Henry dealer .... haven't seen any post of folks doing so recently but do know that in the not too distance pace they have helped folks find what they are looking for

I just picked up a blued 45 after about a year of looking. Consider your search a treasure hunt.
My lgs has a brass 44 mag on their rack right now.

Actually, I did contact Henry and with their assistance, I was able to meet with one of their Gold dealers to place an order. I have a verbal order in with the owner, just for the time being. We're just waiting for Henry to forward a quarterly order form to them and she will place my order in, if she can.

Henry manufactures certain models during certain quarters of the year, if I understand correctly, so my order it will depend on whether they are producing the H012GCC model this 3rd quarter of 2022, or not. One of the dealer's customers has been waiting on a different model since last November, which is terrible.

If not produced this quarter, I will keep looking at various online dealers and the "treasure hunt" will continue, I guess. :(

Centaur, congrats on stumbling across your 45, I saw that post! I'll take luck any day brotha'. These supply chain issues are really beginning to get to me. We had to replace a rear sliding glass patio door on my house. Laid down $2400 in cash in July at Home Depot and the vendor (JELD-WEN) has pushed the dates back 3 times, with no explanation given. The next date is next Friday 10/14 and supposedly it's due to arrive. Manager told us he can refund our purchase when it arrives. I told him if it's not at the store on 10/14 and I'm not refunded 100%, I will have chase Bank reverse the charges.

Customer service has gone out the window nearly everywhere.

Glad you had a win!
