I just bought a new Henry TMLP.. I have a disability in my left arm, I am able to shoot it but not very fast .Would like to come up with a way to install a vertical grip without damaging the wooden forend . Some thing like a mossberg shockwave maybe. Any thoughts ?

Interesting question. Not sure it could be done other than with some kind of clamping around the barrel/mag tube/forestock. Would likely have to be custom made. A good woodworker might be able to come up with something that had a 2 part clamp arrangement similar to scope rings.

Maybe too simplistic. A Velcro strap over the barrel. Holding your choice of grip. Using padding to protect the forearm wood?
Not like there is much force of movement on the 22.

If you want to save the original you could get another one from Henry and experiment with that. I can't come up with an idea that would be stable and not affect the looks or integrity of the for end.
