A new Henry on the way!

A batch of Evil Roy 22 LR rifles is on it's way to Mr. Evil's shop in Texas and my order has been placed for one. Should match up well with my Cattleman 12 shot revolver. Will see in about a week or so! Have a new rimfire target setup I recently built for the range to break in with it too!

It is a really nice gun. I handled (fondled) one a few years ago. It was a very nice piece of firearm artwork. I personally couldn’t get past the Evil Roy signature laser etched into the butt stock.
If I could get one with the same quality furniture and tuned trigger as the Evil Roy model without the signature I would not hesitate to hand over a paycheck for it.
Now if they offered a color case hardened version in .357 I could turn a blind eye to the ugly signature etched into the stock. 8-)

I have his .357 revolver and it is a nice piece with the tuned action.

That’s a good looking pair, love the case hardening, they match perfectly. :D

I'm like SeeBee, I don't really like the signature, but the rifle itself is a sweet little squirrel gun. Hardly weighs anything, but shoots like a house afire. I kept the buckhorn sights. I have a Leopold Freedom scope for when my eyes go south. Sure hope yours is as much fun as mine!

:oops: Mine is very fun to shoot, I made 1 mistake though, I bought mine in .22 mag. Didn’t think about ammo because I have a bazillion.22 le and .17 HMR but am limited in .22 mag,

Was supposed to have been delivered Monday but now tomorrow Wednesday I hope according to USPS Tracking. I hate it when they ship things thru the mail!

I didn’t think the USPS was still shipping firearms. Let us know if there is anything different about the ER over the Classic in terms of shooting. Is the trigger any different?

Well I don't know but will compare it to my Henry Pump maybe.

Dang thing is still on a mail truck someplace between Texas and Richmond so no delivery today. No more dealing with shops that still want to ship USPS! I see Bud's has it now but 40 bucks more. This will be the last new gun anyway. If it gets here I would have a lever rifle for my most used calibers.

Hope it gets there soon Larry.
I'm still waiting on a package that was sent the end of March. I literally despise the usps of late.
