Hello all

New to rifles and long guns for the most part, always been a handgun enthusiast. Have numerous Glocks, and a few Seecsmp’s.

Recently seen the classic.22lr goes for around $300 locally, they seem to get great reviews also. I need a good .22 rifle. Just trying to learn what I can about Henry rifles.

Welcome Holiday009 from Western North Carolina. Glad you joined us.
Although I can't say anything bad about a single Henry, I must say, I love my .22 Small Game Carbine, ( SGC ). Get a catalogue and check them all out.

Smooth action, good shooter. Also have the SGC and the pump and really like both.
And welcome from Michigan.

Yes, and a nice display too!

I gotta ask, what’s the pink cloth with Henry rifle forums on it ?

It is a commemorative towel for the 3'rd anniversary of this forum. There were quite a few made and we had a drawing/givaway of those among other prizes from Henry USA. They were also available for purchace. There IS a story behind why they are pink.
Maybe someone can guide you to a link that would explain it.

[Holiday009]

Cool !

Thanks for the info. I’d like to hear the story behind the color.

Well...in a nut shell. One of our members, ( who is now one of the Team) displayed a firearm pic a long time back, that had a pink rag/range towel in it. It became a humorous topic off and on for quite some time. When it came time for the drawing, he, ( Esquared ) who is now a Deputy Administrator, had them made up to be given to the drawing winners, and also extras for sale.

Thanks .

I found the thread about the tale of the towel. Interesting reading, I enjoyed it.

Seen an Orange towel in another thread I was reading yesterday, dunno which thread it was now.
