Re: Henry All Weather Rifles

Howdy,
I agree with DPRIS, "If it ain't good enough, don't buy one" ....
I have several Henrys, had to send a couple back, service is fantastic...
You could do a lot worse.....

Re: Colt SA chamber wall thickness

Howdy,
"Bolt Cut" is the notch that the "bolt" comes up into to hold the cylinder from turning....
Varies a lot... On my Rugers, the notch is offset from the chamber so it's not an issue...
Hope that helps....

You can lighten the trigger a bit by putting in a lighter weight hammer spring.

Howdy,
I have a Browning 1911-22 and a 1911-380.... Both are quality pieces...
I HAD a Chiappa 1911-22, it was no good, IMHO....
Cheaply made of some sort of cap gun material... Jammed a lot, etc...
Don't know anything about the Colt...
