Can't help but notice that Henry launched their first side loading gate brass model in .38-55, 30-30, .35 REM., and .45-70, which is great.
But, rather than taking the next logical step and launching a New Big Boy and New Big Boy Steel with loading gates, they have chosen not to.
Instead they seem to be futzing around with loading gates only on the zombie-hunter X models and the Mare's Legs.
I can't fathom their thinking. Many shooters will not buy a Classic Brass Big Boy or a Big Boy Steel only because they don't have a loading gate. So, they must be losing sales because of it.
I know that I would buy one in .45 Colt if they produced them.
What do you think?
