Got the Homesteader home yesterday. Cleaned the barrel. Tried to load 5 rounds in the Henry magazines. Got four in each, gave up and switched mag housings. I have some Glock/Magpul magazines from the PC9 that I lost in the boating accident, along with a nice pink Uplula mag loader thing. Now I’m all set!

Gave the little rifle a test today, one magazine of factory and a couple with my reloads. It will take a bit of getting used to, but worked alright except for one jam? with a reload. Magpul mags.

I have a couple of cheap little red dots and a picatinny rail I plan to put on.

Took the Henry out yesterday and fired off another 3 mags. Worked perfect with factory. Reloads worked fine, but stayed open with one left in magazine. I'll try it again, and will pay attention which magazine did that, then try reloads in another mag to see if it does the same.

These are Magpul GL9's. Installed a Barska red dot. Except for me wobbling around like I was firing off a race horse at full speed, I was impressed with the shot placement (fancy, evasive way of saying accuracy). While not likely Olympic material, I think the Henry will suit me just fine.
