I'm still waiting for the .327fed/mag Big Boys in steel to be released...

I'm still holding out for a .22WMR/.410 over and under.

I have one of the original Savage model 24 in .22lr/.410 bore over/under. It is the quintessential single shot for teaching squirrel hunting.
If I saw one with the Henry name on it, especially in .22WMR, it would go home with me.

I'd like to see them produce external hammer 12 & 20 ga coach guns with a 20" barrel .... such shotguns would be an excellent complement to Henry's dedication to western style firearms .... my bet is they would be very popular among cowboy action shooters

I'm not too much of a "wish list" person for what might be. But in this choice of a shotgun style, I'd definitely give it a thumbs up! That is a very cool configuration for a coach gun --- with external hammers. I think you're right on what a coach gun historically reflects, and they look really sharp with external hammers. I really enjoyed shooting my Stoeger 20-ga coach gun!

I hope Henry listens to your great choice for this new Henry shotgun!
Here it is.......and all dressed out, too! :D

I don't know if my wishful Henry has been posted but I would like a simple 45-70 steel with a 20" barrel and a full length mag. So basically the h010 but two inches longer.

I would be first in line for a 24 inch octagon barrel chambered in 17 Winchester Super Mag.

Would you also have to get in line to find ammo for it. I wonder is this cartridge facing a 5 mm Remington future.

I agree a 410 level action but add a large loop for us with big hands.

Hope not.
In this area 17wsm ammo is available at all the big box sporting goods and Walmart.
Admittedly it's more of a novelty cartridge with the California lead bullet ban but the new VarmintX lead free is promosing.

I have a couple or three wishes. First (I think this is a repeat) I'd like to see the H009 chambered in 35 Remington. It's a wonderful cartridge, sort of the .30-30 on steroids. The 35 has a small but very loyal following, made up of shooters who swear by its effectiveness as a hunting round. The 35 kills stuff deader. :)

Second, I'd like to see more of the lever guns offered with Skinner sights as standard equipment.


Lastly, I'd love to see a "handier" pistol caliber carbine. The Big Boys, while they're excellent rifles, are aptly named. They're big. I wonder if Henry could put one on a diet, and make a slimmer, trimmer gun in .357/.38.

I'm thinking something like the old Winchester Trapper.

An 1866 and an 1873 in 44-40 and 45 Colt. It would be great to see these rifles made in the USA again.

Might need to use the Long Ranger format for 17 Winchester Super Mag, using a modified 223 bolt on the 25 caliber rimmed case.
I mean I like the Octagon look but what ever works.

I wish Henry would make a Big Bore Long Ranger in 450 Marlin! It really needs a pistol grip and a 1" Pachmayer Decelerator pad. Could also use a threaded barrel fitted with a recoil arrestor for the timid and target shooting. A all weather version of this would be even better!

I would love to see Henry dress up their octagon barrel .22 HOO1-T with a shiny Evil Roy receiver cover and chromed screws, the shiny barrel band and checkered stock & forearm.
