    Glad you fellas are enjoying that Henry rifle. I may consider one some day. Right now, my 45-70 fix will be another single shot. Just not sure which one just yet.
    Hate is a poison which one consumes expecting another to die.

    Lever, bolt are Marlin from the looks to me.


    When I got my 30-30 a couple of years ago that was my first thought too. That is until I decided to pull it apart and slick the trigger up a bit and found that about the only resemblance is the bolt. That by the way is the one and only time I'll EVER take a Henry action apart, unfortunately I've become accustomed to Colt ease of assembly and Henry isn't the easiest puzzle to put back together.
