A new revolver maker enters... Henry

[TTv2]

Id be down for a 10-shot .22LR. Probably more so than the .357 version.

Same. The .357 they're making doesn't interest me as I don't see what it's offering over other revolvers on the market, but a .22 LR version that holds 8 or more does because we don't have a lot of options for a quality .22 DA revolver. Ruger makes three, Taurus has the Tracker and snub, S&W has a few, and then there's Alfa Proj and all of them have drawbacks.

A 10 shot Henry .22 would compete with the GP100 and the S&W 617 and will probably be $100 less. More options, the better.

A "Big Boy" with a 2-3 inch barrel in 5 shot .44 spec and / or .45 Colt would sell well as long as the quality was there or priced lower.

Very little competition for that combo in production.

What I'm noticing that Henry is doing is they're coming out with the most popular calibers first, so after the .357 and .22 the next option would be either 9mm or .44 Mag, maybe even a .45/.410 as those are still popular and all Henry has to do to make that .45/.410 revolver more viable is make the throats the appropriate size for .45 Colt and add the shot de-spinner like what Rossi does for the Circuit Judge.

Once the common stuff is available there might be limited runs of a .44 Special and .45 only revolver, if the .44 Special was that in demand then Charter wouldn't be the only company making a compact version of it and Ruger wouldn't be making a distributor exclusive model in honor of Jeff Quinn (RIP)
