Definitely need a 357 mag rifle and then a revolver is just naturally good choice. Both are enjoyable to shoot.

Welcome from northeast Pennsylvania, my wife just gave me a 30-30 h009g Henry for my birthday. It is an enjoyable rifle to shoot.

Thanks! You seem pretty new here too. I'm still wandering around the forum, searching for answers, trying not to sound silly. But that's hard to do. :lol:


Thank you for your indulgence,

That caliber kinda speaks to me. I'm a "bang for your buck" kinda guy. That ammo price isn't overly outrageous and I can use it in a rifle and a revolver. So I'll actually be saving money, right? :lol:

Drift the front sight to the left and that should help you with the hittin to the right
Hey, thanks! Yeah, I thought the front sight manipulation was opposite the rear sight adjustments. I appreciate the confirmation. I almost went to the range today, but Mrs. BassCliff reminded me that I haven't finished my chores for the week. ;)

Aren't these things sighted at the factory? Maybe my egghead just doesn't line up with the QC guy. :lol:

Lot's of guys pair rifle and pistol, so you'd be in good company. Here's mine, the .41mag Henry with Ruger NMBH. Bought the Ruger long before I picked up the Henry.

That certainly is a handsome pair. I'll have to save up a bunch if gig money in order to add a couple of .357 units to my little "one of each" collection. Thanks for sharing. :)

Welcome from the eastern side of the state of Washington. Love your “one of” theory. You will find many of us here understand Medicare. :lol:
It's good to meet you all. Thanks for stopping by and making me feel welcome.

Just so everyone is aware, I'm a self-proclaimed Springfield Armory fanboy. I have several XD units, a couple 1911s, and a Saint Victor, along with other stuff in my "one of each" collection.

But I do enjoy this lever action. I just might have to add a second one, in a little larger caliber. I'll let you know.

Many of us on here have “other” firearms too and we are not looked down upon for them. I’m a Springfield fan too but only have one on hand right now, a Range Officer 1911 in 9mm. I’ve had a couple of M1-A’s in the past and an XD-M. Excellent firearms.
