First time out

Post by LM Gorton » Fri Oct 21, 2022 4:53 pm

Got the scope and sling mounted on the 45 colt today and was able to send about 75 rounds down range....my goodness what a sweet shooter. I love this gun more and more every time I look at it!

That looks like a very sweet shooter. I've found the 45 Colt to be very addictive. Now go out and shoot it some more.

That's a fine looking Henry, I agree. I'm also a fan of the 45 Colt.

I’m fond of the 45 Colt because in many firearms you can also shoot .410.

If I ever stumble across a reasonable priced Henry Carbine I just might have 3 & 3. :lol:

I do have a few .410 long guns so that wasn't a selling point for me. I've always wanted this lever to coincide with my 7½" Blackhawk, much like the .22 that matches up with my pair of Single Six wheel guns...its just plain good fun....and a good excuse! 😉
