People are crazy. That is a beautiful revolver. I love the way Henry gave the Big Boy the brass trigger guard to contrast against the blueing like the old Navy Colts. To heck with "historical accuracy", somebody "should have" made that gun. Look forward to seeing how it shoots with a load it likes.

Thanks Chief. You nailed it with the term "historical fiction," when it comes to certain firearms. I watched a movie about the Seminole uprising in Florida with Gary Cooper the other night. Set in 1840 the soldiers were carrying the 1873 Springfield carbines and Colt Single Action Army revolvers. Thirty three years out of place and time.

The Henry DID put me in the mind of a Colt double action. Plus, it's only recently that Western movies have displayed the more common guns of the eras they appeared in - 1851 and 1860 Colts, Remingtons, and Smith and Wesson break tops. Immediate post Civil War films with 1873 Peacemakers everywhere and with everyone pull me out of the immersion of the film.

The bluing on your Henry is beautiful. Guess one's opinion about that comes down to personal preference.....The great Frank Hamer definitely bridged the gap between the 1800s & twentieth century lawman.... Of course the film industry tried to paint a flawed picture of him a few years ago . I would recommend the book "Texas Ranger" by John Boessenecker to get the more accurate biography. PS....If I had a better venue to shoot more, I believe I would get one of those Henrys.
@LionquestFitness
@LionquestFitness Жыл бұрын
I'll see if I can find that biography. Hamer was a tough customer, and modern times doesn't breed that kind of man these days. I find it fascinating that even though he carried a semi-auto as a back-up, his tried and true Colt SAA was his main carry gun.

I too hope to find a Henry revolver, to go with my Henry rifle. I have to say that it's a breath of fresh air to see a new revolver manufactured instead of another striker fired polymer gun. As for that unshrouded ejector rod, I read somewhere that the military did not want shrouded ejector rods like you have on a S&W model 19 for example and the reason was that if dirt or mud got in the shroud it would prevent the cylinder from closing. Anyway I never pass judgement on a gun without trying it out, so I will take your word for it on the bluing. Good luck with it Greg. Awhile back you mentioned the purchase of a Ruger GP 100 and I've been anticipating a video with it.

The Henry Big Boy Revolver is perfect. The only desirable change for some users might be checkered or some other texturing of aftermarket grips from a maker like Altamont. If that stout extractor rod were ever to get bent, then something catastrophic happened causing even more structural damage to the revolver. Like getting run over by a locomotive while on a railroad track. There is some protection in the cutout slot at the bottom of the barrel, as on the classic old Colt Troopers with heavy barrel. Something is borrowed from just about any other revolver thought of in the lines and features of the Henry, most noticeable in the bird head grip version, is the profile of the Colt 1877 DA grip frame. Well done and compliments to Mr. Imperiale, Henry CEO.

S&W introduced a 357magnum in 1935 on a N-frame calling it a registered magnum. Gen Patton carried one in WW2 along with a 45 long colt 1873. I have a colt new service in 38-40 mine was made in 1912. The shroud issue shouldnt be a worry . Colt didnt shroud the ejector till the 1970s.

It's taking me a lot more shooting than usual to get used to some of the differences between this gun and some of the Smith's, Rugers and Taurus revolvers I usually shoot. As I learn, I'll pass it on. One thing I recently picked up on is that as far as speed loaders it requires the H&K 586A. There are a few little quirks I'm keeping an eye on, but the main thing I'm having trouble with is that blade sight and getting a good idea of the right aimpoint.

Hi Greg, I suppose people like to criticize for the sake of it, it's a 21st century revolver with a vintage look, why should the company limit itself to historical Western guns? The unshrouded ejector matter is also a silly one, models 10 and 15 have unshrouded ejectors and they generally work just fine, also, if the ejector gets unscrewed you can fix it in seconds and the lack of a shroud saves weight.

I'm leaning more to a GP100, so I can also shoot .357, but I think the Combat Masterpiece would make an interesting contrast. The blueing is richer and the adjustable sights make a difference past fifteen yards.Those rounds were hand loaded, but probably closer to the original Border Patrol load than you can find now.

I'm not crazy about the Henry revolver. It's nice but but I kind of feel the same way about their big boy lever guns - they're nice but there's just something about them I don't like. I like their lever action 22LR a lot though.

Maybe I don't have the proper eye or taste because I like the Henry revolver bluing. It looks fine to me. Not to say it's the best I've ever seen. That prize would go to a classic Colt Python in my local gun store a few years ago. It looked like they carved it from a flawless black obsidian block and polished with fine silk and unicorn tears for about a thousand years. Considering the _$15,000.00_ price tag, it probably was. While I've said I'm OK with expensive guns, even I have limits. I'll gladly buy the Henry over that. And eventually will.

Those 110 grain .38 calibur loads are powerful. I really like the Henry Big Boy .357 Magnum. The reason I won't buy this model is the barrel length. After buying the Taurus 605 3" barrel. I was disappointed to a degree ☹️. I want a full size .357 Magnum bad after shooting mine❗Full size grip makes a big difference ✅

Definitely on the grip size. The Henry though has a four inch barrel. The GP100 had three inch and there was a noticeable difference in how the guns sent that soda bottle sailing between the two.

Upon first sight of that revolver, the visual aspects of the design struck me as quite ugly. After looking at em for a while, I’m liking it more and more to the point that I consider it quite an attractive revolver. Personally, I like the exposed extractor rods. I have a few revolvers with exposed rods and none have ever been bent or otherwise compromised. Henry makes quality firearms. The bluing on that revolver is beautiful. I’d gladly carry one however I have too many medium frame revolvers now to add more of them to my collection. It’s a great piece!

I'm glad you like your Henry revolver, although I don't care for the looks of this firearm. To me, It just looks like a bunch of mix-matched parts thrown together. The .357 magnum is one of the most versatile calibers going, with ammo ranging from mild to wild and bullet weights go from 90 to 180 grain and every one of these loads impact different. So why would Henry choose not to use an adjustable rear sight? An adjustable rear sight would only enhance the versatility of this great cartridge. This is just my opinion, but at a cost of $925. I think this thing will go over like a fart in church.
