I may finally have a Henry on the way

[FormerParatrooper]

I have been looking high and low, in out of way gun stores across the US and trying to call in favors, but I think I have one finally. I wanted the 357 Carbine CCH but have a steel one ordered from guns com. I ordered there on Sunday night and got email Monday morning saying it was out of stock as I put in my payment. I have a confirmation email, so waiting to see what I get in the morning email.

The demand seems much greater than the supply.

Here is hoping.

I shoot the BBS 357. It is an awesome rifle. I love it. Hope yours comes through. Good luck.

So, anything good?

Inquiring minds want to know...
Hope it's good news.

That will be a nice one if/when you get it. I bought one few years ago and the CCH was beautiful on it. Hope it all works out for you!

BTW anyone notice the high prices for current .45-70 lever rifles Henry and Marlin/Ruger....wow!

Nope, but then again the 45-70 has no alure for me.
As I have a pair of Marlin fo-fo-fo's,
And I can do pretty much anything with those that can be done with the 45's.
With less lead, powder, and ah recoil.

It is now confirmed, there is a package from UPS going to the LGS with my name on it. Inside that box is a H012GMR.

Finally, the search was fun, aggravating and at times looked hopeless, I am glad to own one now.

Nice, which did you get, the 16" or 20" model?

Congratulations, pictures required when you get a chance. Pictures are always required

[FormerParatrooper]

I will get pictures soon as I can. Right now I am working out of town and the schedule has me everywhere for the next week except at home. UPS shows it will deliver Monday, the lgs knows my schedule is anything but predictable.

As the Heinz folks used to say... "Anticipation.... Makin' it great."

[JEBar]

our Henry BBS 357 quickly became a family favorite .... it handles beautifully and really is fun to fire

Look on Gunbroker.com. I am sure they will have a new one at a good price. I got my 357 Big Boy Classic from a seller on there. I paid $895 new a few months ago.

EDIT: There is a new Henry 357 Carbine on there now for $954.99.

Awesome and I know you will love your new Henry.

[FormerParatrooper]

My LGS verified it delivered today. However, I am in Atlanta for two days, then off to Philly and NC. Hopefully be home on Monday to start the process.

Like JEBar, I have and shoot the BBS 357. I never handled a sweeter rifle. It is so easy to carry and shoot. I am jealous of the CC finish. Oh well. Nothing to complain about. I know you will love the ease of that rifle. Looking forward to your reports.

The 16.

I have a 16” BBS in both .357 and .44 Mag. Definitely my favorite two levers. I’m waiting on Henry to get their poop together and make a .30-30 in a carbine…
