I own a original 9422 and I'd buy the ranger to just shoot and not burn up my 9422 anyway. It's a plinker. Something you wouldn't be mad about if it got damaged . Your missing the point.

Considering its features, a walnut stock, hard anodized, etc., it's a nice looking rifle but it's made in Turkey. It is prominently stamped as Made in Turkey. You can get a made in America, American walnut stock .22lr with the same capacity, etc., for the same money. The Henry equivalent is priced at $369 right now, today, at SW stores. Why would anyone pay the same price for a Turkish rifle when they can get a Henry for the same money, or maybe even less in this case. If Henry can do it with American workers, every American company should be able to do it for that price.

I have the Rossi Rio Bravo, and it's kinda a gigantic piece of shit for anything outside of plinking. I can't speak for others, but the one I received isn't accurate at any distance. I wouldn't use it as a survival gun. But, that said, I cannot emphasize enough just how much fun it is to shoot, and the large loop I bought for it adds a nice level of drip to it. I tell my friends that the Rio Bravo is rated for minute of fun, not minute of angle. If I can figure out the accuracy issue, I'd be inclined to deck it out further.

Honestly I think the billet aluminum receiver is a nice touch. Don’t see that on any other 22 lever gun. The 1 screw take down is a plus also.

$400 for a Turkish gun when a made-in-USA Henry is $320-ish? And their dig is that the stock Henry sights aren't great? Get a receiver sight like a Skinner and you're still well under the cost of this import.

@@FinalLugiaGuardian Henry receivers are die-cast. So are the majority of engine blocks and now even major frame components are being cast (famously, Tesla has made the news with their "gigacasting"). It's a more technical process than you'd think, and I doubt if Turkey has the craftsmanship in the die making process to compete. There's a difference between Hot Wheels and a Tesla, even if they're both cast. The Henry is going to be somewhere in between.

@TrojanManSCP 5 ай бұрын

@@FinalLugiaGuardian You say that as if it's self evidently true without providing any evidence. You know they're both aluminum alloys, right? Henry uses Zamak 5 with improved specs that they tune in-house. Minimum yield strength is 33ksi, which is about 20% higher than common machinable aluminum billet. To get the same strength in extruded aluminum billet, you need at least a 6000 series alloy and it must have a proper T6 heat treatment. How much do you trust the Turks to get their materials and heat treat right? And even then, it's a smaller improvement of only about 5-10% stronger than Zamak 5. Arguably, Henry's QC and higher specs can make up the difference even if the Turks do everything right. There have to be millions of Henrys out there. If there were a problem with the receivers, it would be news by this point.

@FinalLugiaGuardian 5 ай бұрын

@TrojanManSCP Zamak 5 is a softer metal than the Aluminum receiver Winchester is using. True. We don't know if the Turks will do everything right with the materials they have. If they do, the Winchester will be a better quality than what the henry lever 22 has. I want to see what Nutnfancy's testing on the Winchester Ranger Revels. Turkish shotguns suck. Turkish pistols rule. We will see where the Turkish lever action 22s fall soon enough.

@@Iceaxehikes I’m aware of the 94/22; it made sense in 1972 when aluminum was a “new fangled technology” and polymer was treated like witchcraft. Nowadays aluminum and other lighter materials are better choices rather than sticking to steel and having a .22 rimfire that’s almost as heavy as the Winchester 94 they based it off of.
