At around $300 I wouldn't mind chopping and threading one for subsonic/suppressed use.

If you think that being nearly killed, then given a POS rifle to compensate for their POS pistol blowing up in my hand then,I guess you're right.

Better than being told your reloads were fugked up and GFY.

I think that's the response most would give.

I think Uberti makes a good firearm. Colt must agree because they purchased black powder revolvers and re-branded them as colt and then offered for sale at 2x the price. I was looking at a SAA and would not hesitate over any quality concerns. lack of funds yes, strength no. If there is a chance of a double charge of unique, a modern design such as ruger would be better.

Now back to Henry, I am looking forward to this new rifle. Heck, I might even buy one.

I looked and found ZERO proof of what you claim. And considering the fact that I've owned at least 10 Colt single action pistols,I don't believe it.
And I don't have a problem being proved wrong.

Not quite that simply, but thanks for playing.

I would like one in .30-30, but the 308 is not bad either. I want to fondle it before I buy it.

I was disappointed that they did not go with the hammerless Stevens pattern, but this one may do.

I forget all the details, but I believe he's talking about the percussion revolvers Colt sold back in the 80's or 90's. IIRC, they were Ubertis, but maybe fitted and assembled by Colt in the U.S. Nice guns, probably better than the originals, and can still be found now and again, but are more of a collector thing than shooters. They came in pretty boxes.

Correct. I have a 3rd model "Colt" dragoon. These were made in Italy by Uberti. No assembled disclaimer involved that I am aware of. Although, if there is documentation to some degree of finish work in the usa, I am open to reading about it. I wll credit Colt for provided the box. No more pretty than any other colt box, BTW. They may have done some fancy cooperatives. Memory fails, only know what I got today.

I guess we really really dont want to talk about the Henry single shots. Bashing colt, like shooting fish in a barrel.

Anyone ever get ahold of a Henry single shot?

There are a few on GB, mostly brass-frame models. My enthusiasm has flown the coop.

I need something short in 44mag to replace the H&R that my niece killed her first deer with, as she will be keeping the rifle.

The twist looks good, but I want to see one, or at least hear some reviews.

Reeds had a blued 44 magnum with a gorgeous stock on GB. I wanted to buy it but have pissed away too much money on scopes and other stuff lately.
