Henry 1860 22lr?

Question to the group, have anyone seen one? Or it only offered in centerfire calibres.

Many thanks.

I have never seen the Henry in rimfire, it has been several different centerfire cartridges. I have a Henry reproduction in .45 LC

It would be cool if they did but it would be a heavy gun and given the cost of the centerfire versions it would be an expensive 22

That would be cool. Go post on the Henry rifle thread. They're asking for ideas.

You could also write to Uberti, since they sell more 1860 Henrys then the new Henry rifle company does

A friend of mine owns a .22rf Henry Lever action, I never asked what model it was. I fired a tube full and could not believe how buttery smooth the action is. The lever swing is long but vastly superior to any Browning, Winchester or Savage action I've ever used.

That would be from the New henry rifle company, not to be confused with the 1860 Henry made by New haven repeating arms, which has no association to the original Henry. The new Henry Rifle company makes a reproduction of the 1860 Henry they call the original henry, but is only made in 44-40 and 45LC

Being that the Henry’s 1860 version is a bit over $3000 a 22 version would be about the same price
