Henry's customer service is the best! It's nice to have a American company to do business with....

It's nice to see firearms ads making a comeback to mainstream media.

I did a transfer a few weeks back for a customer who bought one from Cabela's in Reno. Model H001T. This one has the blue steel receiver and octagon barrel. Didn't get to shoot it, but it sure felt nice. Smooth action, comes to the shoulder and points like a glove. Can't tell on my PC screen if the picture in the add is correct or not.

I guess the newspaper industry is going down that they need to get adds from whoever pays.

I saw that ad and thought it was great. I have read 2-3 newspapers a day for over 25 years and never seen a firearms manufacturer advertise like that. I was shocked because I had recalled from when I lived in San Jose that the Merc didn't take gun ads. Money talks now I guess. What was real coincidental for me was that I had just seen one of them in Outdoor World in Monterey on Sunday. Big Boy in 45 Colt. Sweet rifle. Marked up about 150% over MSRP as is everything there these days.
