Henry Rolling out a Revolver

[308Scout]

It looks like Henry will be entering the revolver game and rolling out the "Big Boy" revolver. Looks to be a double action in .357 with a 4" barrel.

Not certain that this will be on my list, but it's interesting that they are jumping into the revolver market.

I like the brass, after that...no.

They need to focus on their base models before they start making new ones. They pretty much missed Christmas.

Not sure how much sense this makes, especially in double action. But that said, I'll give Henry some much due credit. Nobody can say they aren't innovators.

Yep - a single action cowboy gun would've made a lot more sense from them IMO.

That doesn’t look like a particularly beefy framed revolver, like most 357’s are. Just looking at it, I’d have quessed it was a 38 special at best, IMHO.

It appears to look similar to the old H&R revolver line.

 

[joppaj]

Those are uglier than me.

Agree with the above posters - this should be a single action and it needs to be easier on the eyes.

They’re not going to sell many of these.

Very much so.

I totally enjoy shooting my Ruger SP101 in .357 Mag. Not taking the Henry bait for now but I'm glad they're expanding their product line.

If they made a double action Schofield that would sell. Be pretty much a Webley.

Agreed,,,
They are more than a year back logged on desirable lever action rifles,,, and they want to shift man power to these "fuggly" revolvers ??

Companies have to keep coming up with new or at least remodeled products to keep their name in the news and attract buyers.

Any time an American gun maker decides to make a new gun design it's a good thing.

 

[John from MD]

I think that they could have done better for their first entry into the handgun market.

 

[alucard0822]

Fail. Single actions, SAA or Schofield patterns, 22, 38, 45 would have done well. Not a weird model 10-ish wheelgun on a brass cap&ball frame.

Fully agreed.

Raven Firearms would like to show you their new pot metal .25...

 

[Michigander08]

Wow, who is that revolver for?
