    Henry Model X Scout Scope Rail?

    Does anyone know if there is a scout scope rail for the Henry Big Boy X 357? I like the scout scope rail on the Marlins, but can't seem to find one for a Henry.

    TIA

    Got to love a scout scope. Send Henry an email and see if they have anything that will work. They've always been real good about getting back to me. A lot of their customer service reps are working from home.

    Good luck

    I see this rail is for the H012 model.

      Good idea. Will do.

        UPDATE: Emailed Henry, and they don't make one, don't seem to have plans to make one, and don't know if there is a vendor option.

        I also emailed XS Sights, and they said they do not make one either. I asked if they had any plans to make one, but no response yet.

          Some of the Rossi's have holes drilled and tapped under the rear sights. Do you see anything like that?

          Maybe consider a red dot.

            Tagged. Hoping you will find a solution. I would like a scout rail on mine as well. That would be slick.

              Unfortunately, still no luck. Might try to prototype one with a 3D printer, see how it goes.

                Ask Ranger Point Precision if they have one planned maybe?

                    Check egwguns.com. Found a rail for my Marlin 1895G & put a Leupold VX-3 2.5-8x30 on it. With Leverevolution ammo, it’s a 200-yard gun. But I digress...

                    I just checked the EGWguns.com website and they make a rail for the Henry Big Boy, Model H012. Henryusa.com says the Big Boy X Model in .357 mag has a Model # of H012MX. Among the pictures are two diagrams of the rail with distances between the screw holes. Check it out and measure against the screw holes on your receiver. If it works on your gun, the best part is the rails are in stock AND it’s only $30!

                      This^^^^or, go to the "Henry Rifle Forums" site. You'll likely get answers over there.

                        Thank you, but what I am looking for is a Scout Rail, which would mount from the receiver to the dovetail for the buckhorn. I could then mount a long eye relief scope on the rail forward of the receiver. Like this:



                        I may need to go conventional, since there doesn't seem to be another option.

                          The only other place I know of is midwestindustriesinc.com. Click the drop-down “gun type” link just below the header at the top left, and select “Henry”. They make three different m-lock rails, maybe one is for your rifle....

                            A cautionary note on the above.. They are difficult to self-install, I've read. This meaning a gunsmith may be necessary due to the manner in which Henry installs their forends. .

                              Pretty sure that is the same rail that Henry sells. It goes on the receiver. I have one. Put a red dot on it
