This 5.56 / .223 chambered lever action carbine from Henry Repeating Arms has a lot of modern features and is made from modern materials. In this video I share my first impressions of this carbine.
This video was recorded at The Buffalo Range.

Henry needs to make one of these in 7.62x39. Even cheaper ammo and almost 30-30 ballistics.

Yes, a 7.62x39mm please. Ruger should have offered it in their lever rifle years ago, that and fire the lawyers who talked them into designing it so you couldn't top off the magazine.

If you are a very observant, careful, conscientious individual, you can take your typical tube-fed lever action and fire modern spitzer style bullets through it no problem whatsoever; just never load more than one round in the magazine and one round in the chamber at a time. Fire, load another. Fire, load another. You essentially have a fast two-shot.

All have been flawless on deer. --- of course, in the Pacific Northwest our blacktails don't get too large. I expect to have all of them until I visit the happy hunting ground.

Wow that's awesome shootn Bud,. I started watching your videos a few weeks ago, testing 22lr ammo and your 6 shooters ,. Your one hell of a great shot. I'm subscribed so I can learn more from you, I'm real impressed with your knowledge about all this stuff,. I've become disabled after a life long career in heavy construction 59 now, so I took up firearms target practice as a hobby because with my neck screwed& plated and low back bolted with rods and screws and both shoulders fixed ,I can't do much of anything else. Not to mention constant PAIN ! ALSO I figured self defense would be a good idea (considering my condition) I'm a year in now got the CCW and hit the range once or twice a month. I got a lot to learn yet ,. Thank for teaching guys like me Buddy .

@garyK.45ACP 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks, Buffalo!👍 Nice rifle! Henry makes quality products. I like lever guns with box magazines. My all time favorite and most used hunting rifle is a Savage Model 99 in .300 Savage. My favorite Winchester is the Model 1895. But the flush magazine of the Henry and the internal magazine of the Model 99 makes for an easier carrying rifle. I like that the trigger is not attached to the lever and that the lever throw is a little longer than the Browning BLR, which this rifles resembles. Better leverage with a longer lever arc and smoother action. I'm not a fan of scopes in general and not on lever guns at all. But that seems to be the way people go. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Kind of ruins the handy carrying feature of the rifle IMO. I'd put a receiver mounted peep on it. I'm glad they didn't cobble it up with "safeties". AND accurate, too boot. Now about that chambering...
