I was about to buy a Henry until I noticed it has no loading gate. But aside from the normal drawbacks of this I am wondering if Henry isn't using the tubular magazine because a loading gate in a brass receiver might tend to show scratches and dents. It seems a little sneaky to me. After all, didn't Henry do something like Springfield did, resurrect a brand. Both Springfield and Henry appear to be fine firearms but in Henry I sense they are a great deal about cosmetics too, with all their engraving and such. I question too the CEO of Henry being an Italian when it boasts being made in the US. Anyway, I'm not getting one and will look at the Chiappa which makes what I want, in a Mares Leg.
