If you buy one, make sure it has a semi-buckhorn rear site and not an aperture site. When Henry first came out with their .45-70 the retaining ring on the end of the magazine tube was too flimsy (it was just like the ones on their other rimfire and center fire rifles). The recoil of the .45-70 would cause the pin in the rod that fits inside the tube to damage that ring.
I had to send mine back to Henry and when it came back they reinforced that ring so that's not a problem, but for some reason they replaced the rear site, and all the new ones have the semi-buckhorns now.
