If Henry Repeating Arms Made These Calibers - Would You Buy One

[str8shot426]

I wouldn't buy one for myself. But I bought one yesterday for my wife....she likes it, probably because it's shiny!

No no no

Greetings
As big and heavy as the Henry is... NO. But a 92 Rossi in 32-20 would be very nice.

I could be tempted into one if they changed to a loading gate in cals. 40/65 or 50/95.

Good morning
A 40-65 would be acceptable. Seeing as the present prospect is to alter another 336...

I believe I'll just keep my 1913 Mod. 92 Winchester in 32-20 and 3 revolvers chambered in that cartridge. I don't know anything about the Henry's other than they don't appeal to me.

" No thanks, the Henry's have no appeal to me." nor does a Rossi. I like and prefer what I call Brand Name Firearms - such as a Marlin when Levers are mentioned.

[jmort]

Remington has really made Marlin a great "brand name."

Absolutely not, especially in brass. I cannot stand a rifle where you have to load a tube. And Henry's weigh to much. Lots of firearms are made in the USA. But I don't buy by manufacturing location.

I do want a .32-20.. Ideal mid caliber in my book. If Henry made one it would need a loading gate and be smaller for me to consider buying one.. So far I am leaning towards Uberti. The Henrys king of look funny to me, like plastic toys you'd find on a shelf at Wal-Mart, though the CCH examples posted look ok. I know it is subjective and I don't doubt they work well, but the company needs a real designer, not just an engineer..

I don't care for the way the Henry's octagon barrels don't seem to be "sharp" on the lines?, they look all polished off!?, and they should have a loading gate too.
I have a Marlin 1894 25-20, would like to have one in 32-20, the Winchestes are way to much $$$ and you couldn't give me a *** Rossi!

I don't like any of their rifles myself. They never heard of Kings patent? I don't want to have I don't want to stand over the muzzle to load a breach loading repeating rifle by dropping cartridges down a tube then ramming another tube down on top of em. Until they figure out the concept of a loading gate in the receiver, I would never buy one.

Nope, not for me. Like the Henrys but no interest in the calibers.

Way too much money for the start. Made in America for 3X the price of others made in the good old USA does not hold water.
I had an original Marin in 25-20 many years ago that shot 3/4" at 100 with cast. Marlin never improved that.
I went on Henry's site and learned to stutter!

[avogunner]

...... As it is, the current Henry has none of the romance (for lack of a better word) of the original and not enough of of the refinement of the '66 or later Winchesters (or much of their "romance" either for that matter). There are just too many better options.

Thanks horseman, for putting my thoughts into words. I was thinking of how to reply to this post and you nailed it. Myself, I'd love a 32 WCF but want it in an original Marlin or Win. I love shooting these old rifles and tinkering for "just the right" load.

Nope. I'm not much of a fan of new-made Henry's in any caliber.
