thanks LES! I wish it was in better shape, but I paid $150 for it, which I feel is a good deal. I also got to help an unemployed friend with the money situation, also important.
My dad has always talked about Henry rifles and how nice they are for as long as I can remember, but he has never had one. This will take place of his old Ithaca model 49 that is currently disabled, and since this will be a 'garage gun' the scratches and missing bluing won't matter.
On a side note, apparently the Henry RAC doesn't have power, or didn't. I guess Sandy got them bad. I will have to wait a bit on that mag spring I guess.
