Henry Customer Letters

Dear Anthony: It was a pleasure being with you again at the NRA Annual Meeting in Milwaukee. You may remember me as the Treasurer of the Fox Valley Area Friends of the NRA committee. I'm the fellow that told you about my wife being so excited about wining one of your youth model lever action .22's. We are also the couple that had pictures taken at our wedding reception showing our minister and ourselves holding three of your H001's. The background included our NRA field Rep, his two sons and nine or ten (depending on the picture) of the members of our FNRA committee. You had asked for and I am e-mailing you copies of these two pictures. We greatly appreciate your continued support of the Friends of the NRA Program and in particular our local Fox Valley Area Friends of the NRA committee.

Mr. Imperato,

We finally got our first Henry. I've attached a picture of our son TJ holding the prized Golden Boy 22lr. You guys truly make a beautiful gun for the money, the quality is incredible. The only thing we're going to add is the brass barrel band. Thanks for making our Henry.

The rifle is amazing. The lever action was so smooth and the compliments we got-we were shooting with some ex-military people and they loved Alyx's new Henry!!!!! No one could believe the quality and good looks of this rifle.

Oh by the way, Grandpa's mom and her brothers were gunsmiths for Winchester in New Haven, Connecticut for many years. He said he would stack-up Alyx's Henry to any Winchester lever-action he ever shot.

It was a great family day of shooting and I thank you for such a wonderful rifle.

Hello Mr. Imperato,

Thank you for taking time to visit with us at the NRA Show. Attached are the photos taken at the Henry booth with US Olympic Shooting Team members Lindsay Hollin and Haley Dunn. It was nice to meet you and members of your staff. Thank you for supporting USA Shooting and the efforts of our team.

Best regards,

Mr. Imperato,

I was born and raised in Kentucky where you can use a rifle to take deer. The 45/70 is a great brush gun for those close shots you get in the woods there. I can say from experience that even if you get a mediocre shot on a deer that 405 grain slug will stop them within a few yards....the 405 grain bullets work best..I hand load and have tried just about every weight available. Plus a 45/70 is easy to handload. I guess people like that big slow moving slug. I know I sure do! Thanks for getting back to me! I do appreciate it!

Here's a photo I thought you might like to see....this is my then 8 month old daughter Ella....she was just fascinated with your catalog.

Thank you very kindly for your follow up. I would like you to know I purchased the Henry Carbine with the Loop lever. It shoots like a dream. Thank you for making a sweet looking and straight shooting firearm.

Sincerely,

Anthony, it was my pleasure visiting you. You do so much for youth shooting and I can't thank you enough. Below is a picture took of you and our two young men at the Shotshow. Sincerely,

I thought you might enjoy seeing a target from a recent visit to the range. This 5 shot group was shot from the bench with the factory iron sights on my H001T. Did I forget to mention that it was shot at 100 yards? The extreme center to center spread is a very impressive 1.08", and I haven't installed the tang sight yet! The ammo used was SK Rifle Match. Needless to say, I'm very pleased with my rifle.

I am a Registered Maine Guide and a December squirrel hunt for myself and sons provides a peaceful recuperation from the month long November deer season. As you can see from the pic I take squirrel hunting as serious as any of my guests who come to Maine to hunt big racked 200 lb.+ bucks.

My youngest son was unable to get a shot off at this squirrel with his scoped rifle so the 'Old Man' stepped in to shoot it thru the neck at 65 yds. with the Golden Boy.

I am a traditional hunter and the styling of the Golden Boys 20" octagon barrel with buckhorn sights fills this role in its purest form. I am very pleased with this rifle.

Dear Mr. Imperato,

As promised please find attached two pictures of myself and my Henry rifle as requested. I want to add that I have tried the .45 shown in the photos at our local range and the accuracy is everything I had hoped for. I must admit it felt like I was opening an old vintage wine - never knowing if it withstood the test of time and lived up to it's reputation. The Henry exceeded my expectations. Sincerely,

Jesse Warren

Hi,

I've been shooting military type weapons since I got out of the army in 1971. I've shot a lot of competition , and have been very successeful at it, weather it be going through a combat course with an AR-15, or 1911 45acp, or being in the sniper challenge hitting eight inch pie plates at 800 meters, with a highly modified Remington PSS in .308. But after a while that level of shooting becomes more like work than recreation. So when I saw my brother-in-law's Henry large loop rifle I couldn't help but notice the quality workmanship that went into the making of that little rifle the fit and finish is amazing. Well I just picked up my new Golden Boy today, and the workmanship in it is also impeccable, when I hold this little rifle I feel like a kid again, like Ralphie in the movie Christmas Story, I really mean this, and Im going to harken back to a time when I was just a kid, on a Saterday morning or Sunday afternoon, after church out in the woods just plinking at beer, or pop cans at what ever distance I want, 10 yards, 20 yards whatever. And this weekend Im going to leave the military shooting sceene and go out to the woods with my new Golden Boy and shoot at cans at whatever distance I want, I'm going to know what being a kid again feels like! Thanks for making such a great rifle,

Paul Lafranco

Zach received his mini-bolt on his 6th birthday and fell in love with it immediately. We have had many great Saturday's at the shooting range taking targets, hanging clay pigeons, and bowling pins.

We had a small issue with a screw backing out of the trigger assembly and your company sent us the necessary part plus some with no questions asked, at no cost.

Thank you so much for your excellent customer service and fine products. You have gained two lifetime customers and have restored my faith in american manufacturing and service.

Hello Henry Rifles,

I just gave my 9 year old daughter a Henry lever action Youth model. My daughter says its really "cool" and she loves shooting it. Hitting the metal targets is really easy and the gun is pretty

The way we are going through ammo I'm glad it shoots .22 shorts as well as LR.

Thanks for a great product.

Sincerely,

Hey all y'all! Here are the pictures of my brand spankin new Henry Big Boy .44 Magnum. Ain't it a beauty? I was out on my dock waving it at the gators to let them know to stay out of my yard now!!! I just want to thank all y'all for this incredible gift. The guy at the Ammo Attic asked me if'n I was going to shoot this rifle or keep it as a collectors item. I told him I was going to shoot it and he acknowledged that it would be a dang shame not to! Thanks again!!!

Anthony, Here are the pictures of my 8 year old son who uses a Henry Mini-Bolt in 4-H shooting sports. His name is Louis Surgi and He shoots with the Jasper County 4-H Shooting Sports program in Jasper County Missouri.

Dear Anthony,

Back in August 2004, I had a magizine tube crack at the latch. I sent the gun back to you and you promptly fixed the problem and had it back to me in time for my black bear hunt. Which was my first hunt in my life of any kind. It took a 205 pound maine black bear with one shot at 30 yds. Attached you will find a picture of my bear and your fine rifle you produce. Thank for a fine experience !!!!!!!!

Appreciatively

Hello,

Can you tell me where I might find a case for the Henry Mini-Bolt? We just bought one and are very happy with it. My son is 5 and has been diligently practicing gun safety with his BB gun for six months in order to get this for his 5th Birthday. You would not believe how big his eyes got when we told him we were going to pick it up yesterday. Today he got his first chance to shoot it. His brow was knit in concentration as he went through the drill of loading, firing and loading we rehearsed last night (unloaded) in the house before bedtime. He's already nailed a bullseye and we are adding the pictures of buying it to our scrapbook. I'd be glad to share some if you like.

Thank You,
