It's expensive but your paying for a wall hanger, their regular rifles are still a bit pricey but suited for everyday use & if you figure in the warranty not all that bad. There are still plenty of people out there that are in no way hurting for money so whatever the market will bear.

Nice. I was just shooting a Golden Boy the other day and a friend has the regular Henry lever action.

Pretty pricey for a .22 but they might sell a few down in coal country.

That's the MSRP.. it'll sell for half that.

The regular Henry lever action .22 is a $225 gun. Mine had a fairly poor trigger, gritty and lots of take-up.. but I fixed that with a few minutes of attention.

It's fairly accurate, good for a red squirel at 60-70yds. :)
