Nice guns either caliber
Re: Sons Christmas Gift
Please forgive the temporary hijack. I know I'm showing my lack of knowledge for this one. I've noticed a lever carbine on the Henry website, but didn't see an explanation and hadn't thought about it until reading through this thread again. Is there a difference between a lever action carbine and other lever action rifles?Matrix68 wrote:Lever guns are great. I just watched an episode of "Shooting Gallery" on the Sportsman channel...it was all about using Lever guns as a HD weapon (carbine).
BTW, that stainless .357 is beautiful. I'm also anxious to hear how it shoots.

Re: Sons Christmas Gift
Okay. I looked around and found my own answer. So, for any others that don't know ... it is just a shorter barrel version of a longer rifle.

Re: Sons Christmas Gift
I gave my son a rifle for Christmas too. Feels good, doesn't it?

Re: Sons Christmas Gift
Rifle was very accurate. It did have some trouble feeding follow up shots when working the action. I'm hoping it's just a cleaning and oiling issue. We shot it out of the box. Very light also. Son loved it.
