I received my trigger kit this morning and proceeded to tackle the install. I’m no gunsmith, but I had watched the YouTube video and it looked easy enough. It was, but the I had difficulty getting the screw that goes through the trigger group and seats into the other side of the frame to go all...

You nailed it ! I was tickled to get it because anything .41 mag is like the redheaded stepchild of the gun world. I knew I couldn’t pass it up.

I just watched a YouTube vid on installing a Ranger Point trigger kit. It’s so easy, even a cave man can do it. That’s me !🤔

Those were 25 yard groups MM, I didn’t want to shoot it anymore until I get that trigger fixed. I emailed Henry about the trigger and was advised that a 4/6 lb. trigger was in spec in order for the rifle to pass the drop test. That’s silly because the Henry has no “safety notch” to break if it’s...

Good choice on that burn. I like a good fire !

Thanks guys.

No, they were from a piece of a box of Remington factory loads, 210 grain soft points. I do handload for my revolvers, but I haven’t shot any in this carbine. I looked around on the internet concerning the trigger and basically what I read was that Henry triggers are a crapshoot as to whether...

We sell a lot of coffee here, but most of it is hog swill and priced like gold. 😂😂😂 I get mine at the corner store in town from the same woman for about 30 years. She makes it better than I can !

I have my own addiction Finn, single action sixguns and lever action rifles.

That’s a good looking plot Jack !

You are right of course. I should have said that they mostly didn’t have high price tags, and not fancy guns. They were beautifully made and I have thought of them many times. He also had lots of old Colts in the glass cases and old Winchesters and Marlins on racks behind the counter. I guess...

When I was a kid I used to visit my Sis in Dallas, TX and take a bus downtown to the Buckhorn Trading Post. The guy had two very large wooden tables out in the middle of his store. One of them was filled with drillings of all kinds. Mostly 16 gauge over some kind of European rifle cartridge, but...

I’m a die hard .41 mag fan, so naturally when I dropped in on my local gun pimp for some powder, he just had to mention the new Henry carbine in .41 mag that he had on his shelf. As we were on our way to The Ridge Resort at Marcella, Arkansas I told him to put it back for me. I picked it up the...

If the wide one gets some tine length he’s gonna be a contender !
