Welcome, JC.

Better get some ointment for that bug bite. It's only going to get worse!

I've had to resort to bandages for mine.

None yet, but that's why I'm here.

I'm trying to decide between the Big Boy Steel and the BBS Carbine right now, either one will be a .357 Magnum.

Have wanted a .357 lever action for a long time and couldn't find one years back so I bought a 336C in .30-30, just wasn't what I wanted though.

Welcome from CT, JCast. Choosing your first Henry is a wonderful dilemma! Whichever version you choose, I know you will love it. I have the Brass .357 BB and I couldn't be happier.

Welcome from the Shenandoah Valley, VA. Can't go wrong with either one of those Henrys you are thinking about. I've got a brass 357 BB and a brass 44 BB carbine and love them both...

Welcome from Indiana, JCast. You can't go wrong with either one of those rifles, especially in .357/.38!

Welcome from the ridiculous state of California! My first Henry is a Big Boy Steel in 357. I've mentioned this in other threads.. I really like the steel model in rifle length and the carbine length in the brass model (for balance, shaves a pound off the octagonal barrel). Just wanted to throw that out there!

JCN,

Certainly makes sense, I really want to get my hands on one, trying to find a dealer in the area with any in stock right now.
