Greetings friends and neighbors,
Say, I've been thinking about a lever action in .357 for awhile, and I really like the look of the Henry Big Boy lever guns. I was out shoping around the other day, and happened to come across one.
I like that it is affordable to shoot, affordable to own, and chambered in a cartridge that you could easily plug a deer with.
I'm also really infatuated with the fine wood stock, and especially the brass reciever and butt plate. My question is for Henry owners.
How durable is the finish on the brass recievers? Is it easy to damage. Does it hold up to regular range sessions? I typically lean towards stainless steel for the look and durability.
If you own one, do you have any regrets? Would you buy one?
I have 3 .357 revolvers so I like the notion.
