My Golden Boy!!

Hello guys I always admire a good lever action and have owned a couple before and i enjoy shooting them, so today on my way to work i decided to drop by my favorite gunshop not really planning on buying any thing but you guys know how that works right?! So i made a mistake of looking at this Henry Golden Boy in 22lr, I always admire it before withn its pretty shinny golden receiver ,the octagonal shape barrel with a gold bead on the front sight and the beautiful wooden stock but before i always thought its kinda bit much for me but today my dealer made me an offer i can not refuse(ala godfather 1) so you guys know what happen here ..

I got a Golden Boy Saturday also, like you I have been looking and thinking about them for a while.

I won mine at the Friends of the NRA dinner. I figure that I spent a total of $235 which was for three meal tickets, Bucket Tickets, and three other games I paid to play trying to win a gun, so that isn't a bad price for an evening of fun and a Golden Boy.

I am curious what they are out the door at a Gun Shop. If they shoot as nice as they feel like they should, I may have to pick one up in a pistol caliber. In Indiana you can dear hunt with rifles in pistol caliber.

Congratulations on your new Henry and I know exactly what you mean about going to the gun shop with no intentions to buy anything and going home with a new gun. My last buy like that was a Ruger LCP earlier this year.
