    When these pop up on the website, can someone flag the thread? Nothing yet that I can see.

    I just checked and the website is up and running showing the new side gate options.

    Thanks - they were probably updating when I checked.

    Just saw another email that said that the responses to the first one crashed their site. :-D

    I guess there's some interest in Henrys with a side gate. Who knew, right?

    I thought lever guns were supposed to be outdated and unreliable?

    This is going to warm my heart and lighten my wallet. The first on my list is the all weather .38/.357 carbine.

    My first purchase will be a steel framed 45/70 followed by a 44 mag

    Popularity doesn't necessarily correlate with utility or reliability.

    Old cars are cool and fun but not necessarily the best choice for daily drivers or police pursuits.

    Unless I am mistaken, and please correct me if I am, Henry lever rifles with the side gate feature still retain the tube loading design. This does make unloading these rifles easier. But in early rifles this was a weak link but now has been corrected. I like Henry's and have owned 4 and each one required being sent back to correct defects. Once received, they worked. A common complaint is that when the tube is loaded to capacity, the lever will fly open. I roll cans and shoot hogs with mine. If I was fooling around in bear country, I would carry an older Marlin 45-70. If it sounds as if I'm talking shit about Henry lever guns, I'm not. The company will bend over backward to service their products. My Henry 45-70 is a nice rifle. My favorite.
