HENRY REVOLVERS

[BearBiologist]

LOT of money for something that's UGLY and unproven! Better spent elsewhere (like a good 1911 clone)!

 

[arfmel]

Judge for yourselves:

Not really much competition in the looks department.

 

[Cholo]

Nope, not even close.

 

[Stantheman1986]

They better be an American made version of a Korth for $1000, when that same $1000 will buy a GP100 that will last forever and you'll have some left for a range day worth of ammo.

 

[Cal30 1906]

That revolver is not for me.
EAA arms is much cheaper and look about the same quality.

 

[larry8]

The only thing I don't like is the exposed ejector rod. If dropped it could be bent.

 

[weaselmeatgravy]

I think if I were interested in spending a lot of money on a funny looking revolver from a company with a limited track record of producing revolvers, I might go with the Kimber.

Or maybe even a Chiappa, just to be really different

 

[ProfessorWes]

Still think I'd rather take a chance on the new Rossi .357, or even a Windicator, than the Henry. I'd certainly prefer a GP-100 Match Champion for that money, and would have enough for at least a box or two of shells left over.

I have a .40 Rhino snubby and it's not very fun to shoot because it drives the recoil right into your hand, but it does the job it advertises, to allow faster follow up shots.......but it's light and easy to carry, with the alloy frame. Chiappa actually does a good job with them.

The grip looks small on that Rhino. Can you put bigger grips on it?

It has a Ruger-esque grip stud that accepts bigger grips, those are the small rubber grips. I think if I put the large wood grips on it will be better

 

[Thumbcocker]

Makes a Nagant look sexy.

 

[anachronism]

No self-respecting holster would be caught anywhere near one of those.... things. They're probably decently reliable and everything, but they still look like one of the old so-called "suicide special".

 

[BloodyThumb]

LOL. Perfect!

I want a 4" Kimber .357 with the fixed 3-dot sights bad, I'd say it's #1 on my list. I'm afraid it will spoil me. I handled a Kimber snub at my gun shop and I instantly knew I needed one. I just like the look of their 4" better

 

[BULL'S-EYE]

I've seen nothing but glowing reviews...But I still don't want one. NOW, when the Henry 22 revolver comes out later this year, I'll perhaps be more interested?..Especially if it features a more reasonable price.

 

[Stantheman1986]

It's a revolver for well-heeled Henry rifle owners who are willing to drop $800-1000 for a "companion " revolver to go with a rifle

Henry doesn't intend to make and sell tons of them , they will sell though. All they have to do is be profitable and they'll add the .22 and probably other calibers so people can "match " them to a rifle like .45 LC
