I saw yesterday where henry announced a Big Boy rifle in various pistol cartridges. Funny thing is that S&W looks like a spitting image of the Henry. PJ
Or the Henry is a rougher spitting image of a Marlin...
honest outlaw did a review. he said it was pretty good out of the box. he is going to do a torture test video on it. you can see on youtube
Like this one?

9 shots and a threaded muzzle w/what looks like a "heavy" barrel. A stainless version of the 94 Black shadow with a less flexible cartridge. This had to have been concocted by the "I'd love to have a rifle in the same cartridge as my sidearm" crowd. That way you could carry twice as much weight and still be limited in range. FFS
That is a point.
Haha!
if you can't sneak up on them to within range of a 44 mag out of a long gun???
Will it handle Specials too?

More carrots to draw you away from a modern sporting rifle. Folks will say they are trying to market to places ARs are not welcome. Like gun grabbers will stop at lever actions with limited round counts. Buy one if you truly like lever guns, and I like lever guns but not buying a lever gun made to look like a defense gun with plastic stocks and attachment points. What’s next blunderbuss’ with a laser sight?
A bowhunter at heart but a gun guy at soul. I'll take craftsmanship, wood and blue steel over plastic and composite any day.
What if I don’t truly like lever guns, but like the idea of one anyway? What if I like the idea of adding a light to shoot predators outside my door? Is it ok if I don’t think a lever gun has to have wood furniture and tang mounter aperture? Is a ghost ring setup from XS ok? Or should it have to be an AR variant if I want to mess with the sights? Somebody ought to print out the rules for this shît

Yes, but one of the early testers had some feed issues with one of the batches of specials that had a short OAL.

no attachment point for lights on traditional style firearms. no, no, no
do like my uncle did with his .410 single shot. It had a big ol' 5 cell, 60's style, flashlight taped to the barrel with black electrical tape. When he came home from a call out on his lineman job and saw a rabbit run into the corn rows in the garden he'd grab that up and go hunting rabbits.
You have better options now, there's gorilla tape and Streamlight 1000 lumen lights you can use.
God forbid someone markets a lever rifle with useful features.
old school is cool
