Forgot on my original post... The Henry for me had no problems cycling .44 Special. Just not as much fun, IMO for me.

JonDaddy82Have you checked out the new Smith's? I'm a Henry guy at the moment but if I was in the market I'd certainly give one of these a peek:

How funny. I went to a gun show today and a booth had this exact Smith and Wesson you linked. I ended up buying it. $1,000 cash out the door.

92fstechFrom what I've heard those are going for, you did quite well on that!

It is barely used , and in very good condition. I looked it over well. I spoke with the booth seller for quite a while and he said an older gentleman bought it from his gun store, shot it a couple times but it was too powerful for him, so he traded it in for another gun. I was able to then get him down some on the price he had on the gun.
