New Henry Fan

Post by Co9mil » Thu Jun 28, 2018 8:52 pm

New to the forum and new to Henry rifles.

I've been drooling over the Big Boy in .357 for a while and yesterday took the plunge. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but I will this weekend. Everything I've read or heard says that I will enjoy this rifle like no other. Can't wait.

_WELCOME!_.jpg
Greetings from the Show-Me-State, Co9mil, and congrats on your new Henry BB .357.....great choice for your first Henry rifle.
Drooling is a typical reaction when looking at a Henry; just don't do it into the receiver!

There are a number of .357 Big Boy owners here, and I'm among that group. Glad to have you join us.

Welcome from another 357 fan and Coloradan. I shoot the steel carbine version and love it. Enjoy your rifle!

Just picked up my BB Steel in .357 a few days ago. Such fun and so well built. You'll love it. Don't baby the lever action, take it from me!
