Henry Homesteader

I just received mine yesterday and the stock is split at the tang as well. I think it is a combination of the wood being used. (feels of a lesser quality than my other Henry rifles) and the way they are packed. There is padding on each end of the box but nothing in the middle, pressure on the centre of the box could easily cause it to snap the stock. The retail is sending me a shipping label and I am getting a refund.

One thing I realized after shouldering it, and it does shoulder nicely is that it feels and looks very much like my CZ 512 in 22WMR. So I am just going to keep using the CZ.

The 512 will be more reliable accurate and has better knock down power at 125 m.
 
I have one so I can vouch it is more accurate but ya you are right the 9 still has more foot pounds of energy.

Looks like an old winchester 1903, or 1907, or the last version 1910. I've got an old 1907 in .351 wincherster, I make brass out of 357 magnum brass...lol, the more things change..the more they stay the same...
 
Yep , just went and watched the take down video, it's just a cheap version of a 1907 wincherster. Don't believe me? Watch the video on this thread, and then go watch a winchester 1907 take down video ( utube)..same..same, only the 1907 is built better...
 
Wondering moreso for a pistol grip and rail system for attachments since all the other pccs are gone for now.
But Tommy is pretty cool 😀

It’s wood. Just screw some on.

I personally bought the homesteader for its lack of blackness. And like the old school aspect of it

I'd probably get a homesteader if someone made a buffer tube/pistol grip adapter and quad/mlok rail for it, lol
Wish I got a sub2k while I could.

I just ordered one from Bullseye North yesterday for the same reason. All the mods that are being put forward by members would just make it an easier transfer to the prohib list. It's all about looks don't you know. I love the clean look of this rifle without all the black rifle accoutrements. That being said, I did order a 63B rail and a 1X red dot for it as well. :)
