Henry Rolling out a Revolver

[Bigsawer]

Personally I would rather see them enter the semi-automatic long gun market. I'd like to see a 357 and maybe a 44 Magnum semi-automatic rifle capable of reliably feeding 38 special/44 special respectively.

This is a start.

I can go with that. I'm surprised Ruger hasn't brought back their .44 Mag Auto. That was a nice little rifle.

If they do I'm grabbing one! I saw a Ruger lever action 44 mag at a gun show last month, probably should have bought it.

I can sort of see where they are coming from. They probably figured the SAA clone/Cowboy Action revolver market was pretty saturated, but in keeping with their image they didn't want something fully modern either. Looks to me like they were going for something that aesthetically might fit into the first quarter of the 20th Century. I might be interested if they got rid of the brass look. Still, 33-34oz for a medium framed .357mag, it will be on the edges of what is pleasant to shoot, and at that price, I think I'd rather go for a S&W K-frame. In a year or two, if they prove to be decent, I might consider one, especially if they do away with the brass.
