Doggies sure do love that full belly and chin contact with a cool heat absorbing surface.
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.

Keep it open for him, we will hook him yet and then we have to land him, it was looking for a 9 for him that got me to buy HenryI.

Yes I started the whole damn thing and am proud of it but I depend on you younger guys to keep things in order. Us old guy just love to delegate authority, kind of like the Godfather.
Obviously, one of us needs to find HVII

Well,
I don't have a Henry, I must be missing out on all the fun. The next gun I will buy will be one that easily conceals in the summer clothing. I had thoughts of a Ruger SP101 38sp? Right now I am learning the ropes of reloading. I have loaded some 38sp successfully, and some 45acp's that I will shoot monday. To me, reloading is relaxing and interesting. I like the revolvers because I don't have to chase the brass all around the range. "Where'd that one go", "Wow, that one flew 20ft, under the bench" (those are semi-auto woe's). I'm and old man now, can hardly bend over!

You really need a Henry, cheap to buy and cheapto shoot and an awful lot of fun.
Summer or winter I carry either an
SA V-10 or Micro Compact and a KelTecP3AT. Primary is normally the Micro as it is 1/2 # less than the V-10
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.

Henry's love scopes, even red dots! Henry II is a mean go getter all the way out to 50 yards within the minute of coke can or squirrel. TB

    Tigerbeetle, that's some PRETTY wood on that Henry!
    An empty weapon is just a very expensive hammer.
