Likely too old to ever buy a Henry, and not much for unproven manufactures.

Been a RUGER fan for many years, but they were already a proven company by the time I bought into them in the early 60s.

So, don't think I'll be around long enough to ever buy into a Henry and surely NEVER into a Rossi or Tarus.

I'll let other folk ring em out and I'll just totter along and watch the results from the wings.

If it's anything like the .30-30, it's a very nice USA made alternative indeed. I'm actually warming up to the tube fed idea. If one of those pesky little loading gate screws ever breaks in the field, your hosed unless you can get the gate out of the action. Then you're still down to a single shot rifle. I'm very interested in one myself.

Rather have a marlin, but its better than a Remlin. I like the fact that it comes with ghost rings, but it seems too "thin" when I hold it.
