Henry Big Boy in .357 magnum / .38 special for sale. It holds ten .357 rounds or eleven .38 rounds. It comes with a cantilever scope rail which can be substituted for the rear sight and this allows you to mount a telescopic sight or red dot over the receiver. It also comes with some spare parts, a replacement lever and a few other bits. I haven't really used this very much as my club tends to shoot more .22 rifle and LBP.
The rifle is generally in good condition, it has a clean bore and operates flawlessly. The gun has not been a safe queen - it has been used and therefore does have the odd mark on it. There are a few safe handling dings on the stock, the blue is a little worn around the muzzle and the butt plate has some scratches on it. I can provide pictures of these if necessary. However the rest of the brasswork is lovely and shiny with no scratches and the gun on the whole looks the business.
I'd like to be realistic about the price. These guns retail new for £1,000 (which I think is a bit ridiculous) but I'd like £550 for this, which is coincidentally the price of another rifle I am looking at. RFD transfer would be extra but I am happy to do this. Collection is also fine from Oxfordshire.

Thanks, it's lovely rifle with a very smooth action and cheap to shoot if you reload. I just don't get to use it enough. And I've seen a .223 AK I fancy :-)

If I didn't have a nice new one in 44mag I'd have it, I've got a complete set of spare woodwork and brass fittings for one as well!.
There's room for all Gods creatures, next to the mash and gravy :)
