Ok so Last summer I dabbled in civil war reinacting a bit(thats what got me into black powder) and plan on continueing this year. I would like to have a henry as my main weapon, But I dont have anywhere near the money for the replica. I could however save up and buy a moder henry. If I did that and removed the wooden foregrips would it gain an authentic look of an 1860s henry or just look stupid. This may also be a stupid question but is loading a blank with black powder for a modern firearm a bad idea?
