Beautiful gun. Just gave me flashbacks of watching The Rifleman when I was a kid.

I picked up the 4570 brass with octagon barrel a few years back. I see they are offering a side gate version now... and I've got to have it.

I love my 30-30. Lever actions are AWESOME!

Imo would've gone with Skinner sights on the Henry, but still damn fine! Been debating on either the Big Boy Steel or the Single Shot in 44 magnum, how bad is it to take apart for cleaning?

I highly recommend the Big Boy Steel in .44 mag. Awesome rifle.

1
PonchoGoblin 1 point ago +1 / -0

That's what I've seen, my local store has the case hardened model in 45LC and it's a beautiful gun, really smooth action too! Looking at the steel though because the bluing and walnut will match my super blackhawk

I only took it apart once so far, and I would have been lost if I didn’t have videos online to follow.

The reemergence of lever guns as cool guy guns was odd and unpredictable, but not unwelcome.

Haha thanks. I would love to get a sweet .45LC lever gun/six shooter combo in silver/stainless/chrome/whatever with some sort of black wood furniture.

blacktankguy [S] 7 points ago +7 / -0

Yeah, good thinking. This Henry was my first 357/38 firearm. A few weeks after I purchased the rifle, I bought a 357/38 special revolver to share ammo.

The 357/38 special is nice because you can buy "relatively" cheap 38 special for targets and plinking and such. Save the more expensive 357 magnums for commies

Imin-theinternet 4 points ago +4 / -0

Im an asshole. I ordered a henry in 4570 2 months ago, since im waiting, i bought a magnum research BFR in 4570 to share ammo lol.

The wait will make you enjoy the Henry even more!

Ragnar_Danneskjold 4 points ago +4 / -0

That's a really good idea. And I already have a little .38 snubby. I prefer to have the fewest amount of various calibers as reasonably possible.

Chick-fill-eh 5 points ago +5 / -0

I can't decide if I want the 357 or the 45-70. Be nice to share ammo, but if it's going to be a big boy, it might as well be a big boy.

I have a Marlin SBL in 45-70. It is by far the funnest gun to shoot that I own. The only downside is the cost of ammo.

I decided that reloading equipment will be on this year's Christmas list.

1
PonchoGoblin 1 point ago +1 / -0

Why not 44 Magnum then? Bigger caliber that's hunting viable, and you can get a sweet single action in it too!

Tryhardneckbeard 4 points ago +4 / -0

EZ to Clean, EZ to Fix.... if I was stuck in an Apocalyptic Survival Scenario this and a revolver would be my choices for guns. Everything else would be a liability.

7
Ragnar_Danneskjold 7 points ago +7 / -0

If there weren't millions of interchangable AR-15 parts and ammo laying around in such a scenario, I might agree. But give that there are millions of AR-15 spare parts, spare complete rifles, spare magazines, spare ammo, and same for Glock pistols, out and about in the US already, those are the two things I would choose. I don't personally even like Glocks and don't own any. But I would make sure to grab one in an SHTF scenario just because those have the highest chance of being able to find replacement parts and ammo for anything that will eventually break or run out.

Can you get a lens to be brass coated? Or maybe just brass garnishes? Gorgeous nonetheless, YEEHAW OP!

Whenever I think of a brass optic, I think of Back to the Future 3:

Beautiful Henry! I love those short, octagonal barrels!

That said, if I were to go in hot on commies in Minecraft, I think I'd prefer a lever with a side loading gate. Much quicker and easier to duck into cover and grab some ammo from a pocket and top up one handed.

brsmith77 2 points ago +3 / -1

The historical and the modern joining together to make something beautiful. 357 as well so a nice bit of 'oomph'.

Guess you can also use 38 special for target shooting?

4
blacktankguy [S] 4 points ago +4 / -0

Yes! .38 special is much cheaper. Its surprising how little kick it has compared to 357 magnum.

2
brsmith77 2 points ago +3 / -1

Good range round though?

Nice. I an getting my dad one for xmas. He loved Wanted Dead or Alive and though the mares leg was just for the show and wasnt sold (i know steve mcqueens js one kf a kind, but i can get close).

blacktankguy [S] 1 point ago +1 / -0

Nice! Yeah this one is the carbine so it’s a little short. I think Henry sells a mares leg.

I have one in .45 LC, no gold and small loop. Most fun gun to shoot that I own. GF is REALLY good with it too.

I love lever-action guns. I had a BB gun like that growing up and a kid and I spent hours and hours at my grandparents playing with it outside. Wonderful memories.

What’s the best lever action gun money can buy right now? And what’s the best caliber to get for cheap ammo so I can use it a lot at the range but also still blast commies with? I don’t have a gun yet but I’d love to get one and I want to get the best

2
blacktankguy [S] 2 points ago +2 / -0

It seems like most people like Henry (shown in this picture), or Marlin.

I recommend a lever action rifle that can shoot both 357 magnum, and .38 special. These are ideal, because you can target practice with the cheaper 38 special ammo, as 357 magnum is somewhat expensive.

Also, you can get a wide selection of revolvers down the road to share the same ammo.
