New light-weight Henry .30-30!!!!!

Post by farmer44mag »

This will be my next purchase. Just checked in on the Henry website and was going to send a letter asking for a lighter-weight version of there .30-30 and apparently they have heard that alot cuz they just came out with one!! Checkered straight grip walnut stock and sling swivels with XS Ghost ring sights!!! The only thing missing is a loading gate. If marlin isn't going to produce quality anymore than this is the way to go boys.

Now if they can just make them in .35 Remington, maybe .25-35, etc., they'll sell a million...

At least four or five. As P.T. Barnum has been quoted... need I actually say it? :twisted: :twisted:
