Where oh where are the new rifles???

I have been looking everywhere for a side gate 30-30, and it seems that unicorns are more abundant. I’m snowbirding in Arizona, and they just don’t exist here. I have my gun store back in Wyoming, and they can’t find one either. What gives??

Placed an order after Henry emailed about all the new sidegates offered back in November 2020. Coming up on three months since order was placed, as of 2/17/2021 my lgs has heard nothing. Lgs has order placed with 2 different distributors that he uses. With such demand I wonder what price will be?

I saw one of those about 3 weeks ago in a little gun shop in Savannah TN.
First and only one I've seen.

over time I've found from personal experience that an email to Anthony (anthony@henryrepeating.com) from your dealer requesting help locating the rifle you want has worked wonders

Saw one at my LGS 2 weeks ago while I was asking about the 357 I ordered 3 months ago.

There's one for sale on another forum in Tenn, asking $800 LNIB 5 rds shot.
He says, must be a Tenn resident, etc., so.....

It seems like every time that H.R.A. brings out new models it is a year or two before they become widely available.

You can find just about any model you want on Gunbroker. You just won't like the price. :evil: :o

I would go on the Henry site & the find a dealer page find the dealers with a BLUE dot these are Henry's top 100 dealers they get first pick, that's how I got mine, I called & was told that she just got a call from Henry asking how many rifles she wanted, she called me when my BBS cc gator in 45 colt came in, I was there quick, she got 7 rifles that day

I was in my LGS yesterday who is a Henry dealer and they had a 41 mag BBS on hand. It wasn’t there a week ago, not sure if they got in in as new inventory or if the one they had a while ago was maybe back from lay away. I’ll ask them next time I’m in there. Not much else, couple of 22’s, a 410 and maybe a 44 BBS.
