Where are all the Henry revolvers hiding?

Only place I found 2 was on Gun Broker but all the large shops have none. Not that I'm looking for one but just curious.

Well I should say the Henry revolvers. My LGS also has a wide selection of the other brand revolvers.

I think that single action revolvers may be a bit of a specialty market and any dealer that doesn't cater to the CASS crowd may have one on the shelf for a long time. I have a Colt SAA. 45 and a Ruger Blackhawk .45 conv with two cyliders. If I had to take one revolver It would be neither but a double action with a swingout cylinder like a GP 100 or my Trooper or even my Redhawk.

My local gun store had a few the other day but not anything I was interested in. I did pick up a nice looking (well, photo anyway) Ruger Speed Six off GB. I'll post a pic after I pick it up from my FFL. I've always wanted one and soon I will. (Edit: Here's one of the GB pics.)

1) for as ugly as the henry revolvers are they can keep them hidden
2) Nice Ruger, I have a Security 6 that has over 5k rounds thru it, both .38 and .357. Still solid and accurate, great gun

Plus one on the Ruger. I have a couple of Security Sixes, one to shoot, but the other is a Liberty gun, as new with box and papers. That one I don't shoot. Much prefer the handling of the Six series DAs to the later, clunkier GP-100s.
