I've wanted a lever gun for a while, and I also wanted a rifle that shares caliber with one of my pistols. Eventually I decided on the Henry All Weather in .357 and picked a new one up at a good price at Gunbroker. After it arrived I took it out back to the range and had a good time with the first magazine load of 10 rounds. I reloaded and sent 7 more onto the targets, but the last case wouldn't eject. The lever would move a bit, and I could see just a bit of movement of the trigger and hammer, but it was otherwise locked up solid.
I called Henry and spoke to Alan in the tech department, who asked me to send him a video of what was going on. That was six weeks ago. I called and left messages, but never heard back from the tech department again.
So I went to the Henry website, filled out the warranty form, and received a shipping label and return authorization. It's on the Fedex truck today. Needless to say, thus far I'm not too pleased with Henry Repeating Arms.
Any ideas about what might cause what you see in the video? I'm applying enough force to deflect the lever, but she just wouldn't budge.
