Henry 38-55 side gate - thoughts?

[Nibe]

I have to move fast on a Henry 38-55 side gate. Rifle is new and a real beauty to hold and look at. I've been looking for my 1st Henry but the caliber isn't commonly used. My question is, will I be limited when time comes to resell? Is there a market for this gun compared to other Henry's?

I'd buy it in a heartbeat

Done, and almost too beautiful to shoot. My crappy pic doesn't do it justice.

I wouldn’t mind one in 35 Rem, not a huge fan of the checkering pattern though.

Personally, I love the checkering. It's etched fairly deep and beautifully done. My pic doesn't do it justice at all. But of course to each his own. It was more the 38-55 caliber that made me skittish. It'll either be a curse or a blessing when it comes time to sell one day. Not soon though, this one's a keeper for awhile.

Better pic of the checkering i found on the net.
