I got the bug........

Well, now that I've got a Spencer I've got the bug for a Henry! Any recommendations/advice on locating one? I've been watching GunBroker but no 1860 models, all modern arms.

I bought a Uberti Military Model so I could have a sling....size]

More Henrys than you can shake a stick at if you check the higher-end auction houses (Julia and Rock Island come to mind). Just be sure to have a pile of money and enough control of your paddle...

Sgt John, now that is a fine display! I've been saving my pennies for a Henry, may have to wait a little longer as what I have found are a little out of my price range right now.

All I can say is know what you want and don't settle,....you won't be happy if you do settle....

Howdy Pard?
How are you searching on Gunbroker? I just typed in "Henry 1860" in their search function a few minutes ago and 4 Uberti made ones showed up, brass and iron frame, 45 colt and 44-40.

Sgt. Chapman, you are hereby sentenced to barracks until further notice for shooting a revolver two handed while in uniform!!
