Someone needs to make a lever in .30 carbine (Marlin Levermatic 62s in .30 carbine are too scarce/expensive)!

I could go for a pistol grip version in .308 chambering.

Has anyone ever communicated with the management about some addl. calibers ?
I have met the plant mgr. and he seems like a regular guy.

Seems redundant when the .327 Federal duplicates it's ballistics and is already available in the Henry Big Boy steel. Missed this back then. Will that HBBS (also available in the Henry Big Boy Classic & Big Boy Carbine) fire the same .30 carbine round as my Universal "M1 Carbine" and my Ruger Blackhawk? No, it won't. And that's what I want - a lever-action partner for those two! My HBBS Carbine is for working with my S&W 30-1 (.32 S&W Long), Ruger Single-Six (.32 H&R Magnum), and S&W 632 (.327 Fed Magnum).

Henry's are for urban cowboys.
Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

Were they to produce a clone of the original Henry chambered for the .44 Henry RF and get some ammo circulating I’d buy one and a big load of ammo. Otherwise I have all the leverguns I want.
I am..........disturbed.

They're halfway there DD. You'd have to settle for a .44WCF though. ![[Linked Image from assets.henryusa.com]](https://assets.henryusa.com/uploads/2018/10/ct-_0007_new-originals-scaled.jpg)

Never been much of a fan since they entered the market place however I'll be more obliging in the future with additional models featuring loading gates.

Doesn't matter what caliber they offer if the twist rate in the barrel is too slow to stabilize a high bc bullet.
That's the Achilles Heel of all these half fast manufacturers of useless rifles.

X2. A Henry with a 20" barrel, a 7 lb. trigger and accuracy (according to several reviews I read) that averages 2-2.5" at 100 yds. is real conducive to long range shooting. LOL
