You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

My local gun store has a Smith and Wesson 686 that's used for 750.00 I would buy that long before I would drop 800 for this ugly gun.

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.......

Wonder how many and where they have sold any? IF they are making them they have to be holed up someplace!

Re: Where are all the Henry revolvers hiding?
Haven't seen any around here.
If it is like everything else they make these days.
May be a while, but I have no desire to own one.
And I agree with a couple of the previous post, that they are UGLY.

Re: Where are all the Henry revolvers hiding?
I'd like to try the trigger on one. That will tell me a lot about what I want to know about them.

Re: Where are all the Henry revolvers hiding?
I wouldn't mind trying one. Pretty isn't always the most important thing. The A10 isn't a pretty Aircraft in my mind... after all, it's nickname is the Warthog... but it's beautiful when it rolls in on target. LOL. My PPC revolvers aren't exactly beautiful, but those ragged x/10 rings groups are gorgeous.

Re: Where are all the Henry revolvers hiding?
Yup, PPC revolvers are shot rapid fire at 7 and 15 yards. They are also shot slow fire at 25 and 50 yards, standing, sitting, and prone. Big heavy barrels make them very stable and also really fast back on target in rapid fire. (2 shots in 20 seconds including the speed load.) Most of the 12 round groups at 7 yards are one ragged hole.
A full state level match is 120 rounds with the PPC revolver, then again with a semi auto. Of course there are the side matches for Service Auto, Service Revolver and Snubby. (Those courses are shorter, less rounds.)

Re: Where are all the Henry revolvers hiding?
When I was a lot younger I had a few LEO friends that did that type of competition. They would buy a used model 10 S&W and then let a gunsmith put on the heavy barrel, Bomar rib and do an action job. Those guys would travel all over the state (Fl.) to compete. In those days all of them carried .38 revolvers on duty. My how times have changed.
