Henry Repeating Arms???

Henry Repeating Arms

Great Folks.
Sent an email about a scope mount for my .22 mag pump action. THE PRESIDENT OF THE COMPANY CALLED ME BACK!!
They sent two, just to be sure I got what I needed and several extra screws.
I called to see about returning the one I didnt need and they just said "Keep it!"
So, what more could you ask.
PS: The .22 mag. pump is more accurate than my Marlin 45/70 at 100 yds.
 
Only Henry I have is the little survival 22LR rifle and it has been 100%. Several hundred rounds through it and the takedown works just fine.

My dad gave me a Henry .22 Lever Action for my 6th or 7th birthday.

It has given me 15 years of dependable use, I expect that if I ever have children it will be around for them to shoot. Its accurate to a point where accuracy is a measure of the shooters skill more than it is the gun.

I think the Golden Boys are a bit too pretty to shoot, and that if mine had been a golden boy, 15 years of use would have it not looking nearly as pretty as it started.

I love mine, its built solid and functions well.

My .17HMR has been great. It is extremely accurate and the action is the smoothest I've ever seen in a lever gun.
 
Have the Henry Big Boy in 44mag. It's accurate, fun to shoot, slightly heavy and way too nice to take into the deer woods.

Henry in 45 colt

It's the only lever action I've ever shot, but I really enjoy my Henry Golden in 45 colt. Shoots reasonably tight groups at 100 yards. Have never jammed in hundreds of rounds. Very enjoyable gun.
Live well, be safe

I have had only the best of luck when dealing with Henry. Their products are well made and shoot great. Customer service is also top notch. They sent me a free barrel for my Survival rifle when I called and told them I thought the barrel was worn out. Great company.
 
Dad has one of their .22 levers.

It is outstanding and is the smoothest lever action I've ever used, besides being very well made. It is a Best Buy IMHO.
 
I have a Henry Goldenboy and it is a sweet rifle. Super high quality. Smooth action, high end finish, flawless performance, highly accurate.
 
I have a Henry Big Boy in 45LC. Very nice rifle. With several hundred rounds fired its still doing its job flawlessly. Have to admit I really like the lever action on it. Very smooth
 
I truly believe they are fine firearms and their customer service is awesome.
I bought a H001 used it had an original factory plastic front sight. I called the company and they sent me at no charge a metal front sight.:) Cliff

I bought a H001 used it had an original factory plastic front sight. The rifle was manufactured in 1998. They sent me a new metal front sight at no charge.Did I say their rifles and customer service are awesome .:) Clif
 
I don't know if a couple of months is "resurrecting" an old thread, but I have to weigh in on this. I'm an FFL, and got a Henry H004 for resale. When I opened the box, I took a quick look at the walnut furniture, the care with which the rifle was built and assembled, and decided right then and there to keep it. I have an old Marlin 39A original golden, and I love it, don't get me wrong, but the crap I've seen come into my shop from the "major" manufacturers lately depresses me. Quality is a thing of the past, in normally priced guns. I'm sick as heck to be sending gun after gun back to the "major" manufacturers after a couple of rounds, for warranty work. I find myself excitedly recommending anything that works out the box these days!
The Henry is well built, of quality materials, and is made in the USA. Add outstanding company support, and you've got a winning combination.

Now, as to the rifle itself... I wish the drop at the comb was like the Marlin. My 39A welds to my cheek perfectly. And while the brass buttplate is way cool, it's too slippery for good times on the plates. Between the low comb and slippery buttplate, the gun is all over the place when going for low times on steel cowboy targets. Now, my Marlin has a Williams target sight, and the peep/bead combination is a killer combo for fast accurate shooting. I'm new to the buckhorn sight, so it could be my fault, too. I come from NRA Hi-power shooting, and the peep sight is King.
But, after thousands of rounds, the Marlin action is still not as smooth as the Henry was out of the box.
In summary, I have to keep both. Because they both rock!
Now, to get the Action Target Dueling Tree out to the range for some lever-action fun with my buds! I only wish .22 ammo was more available. I'm shooting A LOT lately!
 
Their standard blued 22LR and 22MAG rifles are an ERMA design that is an outstanding design as well.

Henry's 30-30 is an awful design and should be avoided unless you think its fun to keep sending your rifle back to factory for warranty work. Henry's craftsmen build pride into their work but the engineering department is mediocre at best.
