Lever Rifle I wish Henry would make, I can dream Can't I

I wish Henry would make a Big Boy Steel in 9mm. I think that would be a cheap rifle to shoot in todays market place. It sure would be a nice easy shooting rifle. I know it can be done and they are just the ones to do it. Better ammo availability and price.

I tend to agree. With all the other pistol calibers available and the affordability and availability of 9mm caliber, I think it would sell big time. I personally would be interested, more so than the Homesteader. Let's pair our 9's with a BB as well.
Good idea IMO.

ummm, not a BB, but have you seen the Henry Homesteader discussions?

I, have certainly seen the discussion, but have to admit that this same thought crossed my mind. I don't need the magazine. I would rather cycle the rounds.

Well this is a start in the right direction and Henry should be able to figure it out with a tube magazine!

Not my cup of tea at all. I would buy a more trading in 9MM.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Maybe a 9mm in a Henry Long Ranger version. I don't think Henry would do a 9mm in a mag tube rifle. Some of the 9mm ammo is too pointy and powerful. +P ++P.
Liability issue I would think.
