Ok...
I can definitely see how it could seem like lugging a Subaru around after hefting it for an extended period of time, but danged if she ain't pretty! Hubba hubba!!
I understand that the shiny brass wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, (may not be mine if I were to buy a second Henry), but it is absolutely beautiful and I'm very happy with my choice.
Thank you all for the input.
I may yet get a blued barrel band, we'll see... now to get some range time in!
Added: Interestingly I did not wind up with the rifle that I chose, the woman doing the shipping actually shipped the wrong rifle out. I had a 'media moment' with seeing something shiny just as the proceed came through on the 4473 and I wound up with the 20" brass in my name.
When I phoned my guy about it, he credited me back a buck fifty to avoid the hassle of doing the return... that helped in making me happy with me 'choice'!
Just gives me an excuse to some day maybe make the second one a steel carbine and then my sons won't argue when I'm gone over who gets the lever in .327!
