What i said was true. Can’t remember the companies name that first made the pot metal lever action 22s but I think it was w German. Regardless Henry re-badged them and presto...the birth of a gun company.
No idea on the Lone Ranger...Henry anything is not my jam hence I didn’t comment on that gun.
Just realized how that sounded...it’s not that I don’t like Henry as a company...I just am more into bolt actions
I can't remember where I read it, but some guy documented a LONG torture test into the 10's of thousands of rounds on a pot metal Henry 22. After every so many thousands of rounds, he disassembled it and took measurements. The gun never gave up or went out of tolerance. It turns out that the 22 long rifle doesn't need to be built like a .460 Weatherby and that the pot metal/advanced lightweight alloy will last much longer than 99.923% of shooters need it to.
