Greetings From Oklahoma

Post by aggiesam1983 » Sun Mar 31, 2019 7:24 pm

Just found and joined the forums today, pretty excited about it since I love Henry Rifles. Right now I have four Henry rifles including:

Henry Long Ranger .308 which I used last fall to take my first deer ever at age 57, ended up taking three for the year.

Henry color case hardened .357 which I just love! It is very accurate and fun plus I love color case hardened guns.

Henry small game .22 LR with factory threaded barrel because what could be more fun than a suppressed lever action rifle!?

Henry Evil Roy with a custom serial number of AGGIESAM1983.

I am thinking about a Long Ranger in 6.5 Creedmoor because how fun would it be to ring steel at 1000+ yards with a lever action? And then hunt deer with it too?

Also thinking about a single shot in .308 for deer hunting but the factory trigger is a bummer for me.

Anyway, thanks for allowing me to join and let me know if there are any others from Oklahoma in the forum. Also, Texas Aggies because what could be better :-)

Thanks
Sam

Welcome to the forum. Dont let the trigger on the single shot chase you away. It can be modified. Many of us have done it here with satisfaction.

Welcome from KC! It's great to have you here! We have similar collections, just some different combinations of calibers and finishes, but love my Long Ranger 308. My first deer hunt this past fall, too, thanks to my Henry Hobby!

Welcome from Nebraska. Us flat landers need to stick together. Nice collection of rifles.

I too am considering the 308 SS. Easy carry hunting gun.

Welcome to the forum. It's a family, dive right in. We like pics. Anecdotes, and the Lounge is a lot of fun...
By the way, my daughter, the middle of three, lives in southern OK, near Wichita Falls, TX where her husband teaches at the AFB. They live in a town so small the post office has one employee and is only open two hours per day.
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.

Ah Shepherd AFB! A lot of jet engine folks have gone through there. I am a jet engine guy myself and work near Tinker AFB in OK.

Thanks for the friendly acceptance to the group, I will try to be a good member :shock:

Sam ....

have you visited the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City ===> https://nationalcowboymuseum.org/ .... one of our favorite activities while traveling the country in our camper is to visit such museums .... there is a very small list that we have found so interesting that we make it a point to visit more than once .... we've been through OK City's Western Heritage Museum 3 times and hope to one day be able to tour it again
