Get to go shoot the Henry Big Boy today. Looking forward to it.

OK, Clovispup and I do this every other Tuesday in the cool months, but I'm looking forward to it anyway. I've got somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 rounds loaded up. Yes, she will shoot most of them, but hey, watching her have a great time with the Henry is as good as shooting it myself.

Sometimes it's the little things in life.

Sometimes it's the Big (Boy) things.

AMEN ...

Load - aim - enjoy!

Must be getting warmer down there in Summerville. It is cool up here in North Carolina today. About 72* hoping that the summer is merciful this year. I hate 100* plus. Okay I hate anything over 78*. Wish I had time to go to the range and envy you big time. Especially the joy of seeing your pup get in some trigger time.

Well, I had to open my big mouth.

After about 50 rounds through the Henry, it started having major feed issues. Since the range/gun store we were at is the store I bought it from, and they have lifetime warranty, I let the gunsmith look at it. He said looked like the issue was the spring on the carrier. I went ahead and left it with him. Might be a few weeks.

Oh well. Stuff happens.

That's a real Bummer, CH. I hope he just sends it back to Henry for a quicker resolution of the problem. A few weeks would be a long wait.

Since they warranty it, I will let them deal with it. He said he might be able to pull it down by the end of the week and order parts if necessary. Depends on if it needs parts, and how long to get them. We don't plan on going back to the range until two weeks from now anyway. It's Skeet next Tues, unless it rains. We can make do with the Ruger, H001, and the Smith model 10 until the Big Boy is back in commission. I could always let her shoot the 30-06 Mauser. That will put her off rifles for a while. Perhaps. She actually deals with recoil pretty well. She did well with the rental 1911 in .45. Last year my buddy asked if she wanted to shoot a Mosin Nagant. She looked at me, and I gave the micro head shake. She took the hint and begged off. Smart kid.

Bummer indeed .... looking forward to your test after they get it fixed

Hopes for a quick resolution, and back to the range!
