Hello from Pennsylvania

Post by Mr Bill » Fri Dec 29, 2017 12:16 am

Hello All, I've been a shooter/hunter for over half a century, mostly rimfire bench stuff lately
and enjoy the great outdoors immensely. Well after years of hankering for a goldenboy .22lr,
this past Black Friday, I bit the bullet, pulled the trigger, and hit the bullseye, and took the
coveted Henry Goldenboy home. No buyers remorse here, several hundred, rounds dispatched
from about a dozen mfgrs, nary a hiccup. Tang sight or scope will be a needed future addition.
Anyhow this long time lurker will keep ya,ll posted on what will be, Cordially, Mr Bill.

Welcome to the forum Mr Bill. With the Golden Boy some people find it hard to scope because of the angle of the stock being so low. I bet it would look period with a tang sight. You might want to add a front globe sight too.

Aye that, stock angle is truly form over function. I know putting a scope on a lever is like a
coat on a dog, never really looks great but it's what called for.

Welcome from Central VA. We are like family here. Jump right in, post, share pics. We like pictures.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
