My local Wal-Mart has a nice Henry, that I've had my eye on... Y'all aren't making resisting the temptation easy. This one Happens to be chambered in .357, just like my wheel gun... You know...? Hanging out with you guys can get expensive sometimes. LOL!
Yup, the temptation to own these is way up there. If you haven't tried the action out, I strongly recommend you do. Smooth as butter. I know the receiver & forearm band are plated brass. Not sure about the butt plate. Hope it is solid brass.I have my plinkers & mid duty air guns covered. Then my higher powered .22 cals, 22-250 & 243, then the high powered stuff. The Golden Boy in .22LR would fill that 2nd gap in nicely. I'll definitely plan to order a few this weekend.
Geeze! I suggested a Sumatra for a lever action rifle. We've moved waaay past that at this point.
No offense taken. We just went from a Co2 powered .177, to a full blown PB cowboy rifle. 🤠
Changed my mind...the GB in the link I gave above does not have the brass forearm band, & I think it only shoots LR.This is the one here; it shoots S/L/LR. Only a buck more; http://www.centerfireguns.com/henry-golden-boy-22lr-h004.htmlI'll do some checking though. It appears to be the same model #
Placed order today. The only issue I had was finding someone with a FFL License. Fortunately I have a buddy that owns a sporting goods store. Looking forward to getting them.

Looking forward to getting them.Getting back to airguns. One question I have is why no air gun company makes decent barrels like the Henry and other firearms? I don't want a cheap shroud I want a solid barrel that does not bend when you bump it. Look at any .22 rim fire, browning, Henry etc. The barrels are much more substantial.That new Scorpion PCP was leaning on a wall it fell over and now it shoots 2 inches left at 20 feet. Did it bend the b arrel? Scope? no idea yet. They just seem too weak to me.
