I would not use paraffin, as it is o hydrocarbon derivative, which causes fouling when burned with black powder. Paraffin is a by-product in the refining of crude oil.
Mutton tallow? Unsure what it is (refined sheep fat?), but lanolin (also a sheep derivative) might be easier to get.

Contrary to my perception going in, I watched "The Hateful Eight" a couple nights ago. It was surprisingly good movie. It held its own in many regards. It did have that Quinton Tarantino flavor to it (sometimes good and sometimes not), and it was (again) surprisingly good. I found it to be a suspenseful whodunit with very good acting (great cast) with a real western setting. It gets 4 Stars from this doubter.

Get hold of the seller and tell him you're going to send the rifle back to his Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL).
Ask him to fess up.
If he doesn't want to take the rifle back tell him he'll have to pay for repairs.
Don't even THINK about using a Dremel Tool on the rifle!!!
Repeat.....Don't even THINK about using a Dremel Tool on the rifle!!!
Were I you, Tex, I'd listen real hard to the advice of these guys who've tried to help, above.
Without photos, Tex, they're feeling around in the dark.
I'm sorry this happened to you, Tex, with this rifle.

Could'a built a fire, put on a pot of beans and a big pot of coffee, rolled a few cigarettes huddled up in yer blankets, told a pack of lies and called it good, I reckon. But, all y'all do what you want. :-)

For its time, it was probably better than nothing.

Checking with museum curators is a good idea. Personally I would simply wipe down the leather gently with a very dilute solution of Woolite and water, followed by a wipe down with a damp rag. Then I would let it dry thoroughly.. I would follow that with a very light wipe-down with extra-virgin olive oil. Aside from that, I woul leave it alone.

Morro Rock!
Merry Christmas Bob, to you and your family.

ALSO, if you err and tell the postal employee that there's a firearm in the package (they don't need to know exactly what the package contains, even if they ask), I urge you to just leave and go to a different branch. If a USPS employee tells you it's against USPS rules to ship, or just doesn't accept firearms, they are wrong. Individuals may not ship handguns, but rifles and shotguns are okay. The Postmaster should be able to sort it out. But, just don't get into that box. I advise you never reveal a package contents. So, if they do ask, don't tell.

I agree. While it's legal for an individual to ship to a FFL holder, many FFLicensees won't accept such shipments. Check with the buyer's FFL to be sure. Be sure to include a copy of your driver's license and who the buyer is (ask the receiving FFL what he wants you to included in the package),
Shipping via US Postal Service, Priority Mail is usually cheaper. Check with your own FFL to see if (all things considered) it's cheaper to use your FFL to ship. He's probably gonna ship USPS anyway.
You won't know or understand this stuff unless you ask and do your own research.

I wouldn't trade her fer the '87. No way, Jose Bell.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

You can shoot the wadcutters in your revolver, but DON'T try to cycle them through your lever-action rifle.
They are too short, and without the rounded nose, these will not chamber and instead, will hang up, jam your rifle and will be a problem to clear.....every around. You could remove the magazine plug, but some wise "helper" at the unloading table will bugger up the slot on your mag tube plug trying to unscrew it. Just shoot them in your revolvers.
I will be exceptionally surprised if you have any failures to fire (FTF's).
Accuracy? These are highly accurate, and very low recoil.
Again, don't even think about cycling these through your lever-action rifle.

Problem is these people live and breathe among us , and they BREED!
Maybe the castration program was misdirected?

Then of course there's always this tried and true method of dealing with some of these evil death penalty monsters:
From "Geronimo An American Legend" (MPAA rating PG-13).
Al Sieber, Indian Scout (Robert Duvall):
"They got lots of ways to kill you. One of their favorites is to strip you, tie you upside down to a wagon wheel. They pour pitch on you.....light you on fire. (Clucks his tongue.)"
In many of these death penalty cases, that thought may begin to swim around in your mind as being appropriate. :-)

My opinion is that you will have better luck by writing off the Henry, selling it and buying a Uberti Win73 clone from someone like Cody Conagher (a CodyMatic) or some other source who will sell you the rifle already set up for CAS.

Potterfield is not a good person to ask about this sort of thing.
Now, if you ask him to recommend a plastic surgeon, he's yer man. :-)

I suggest that you locate (Google) the nearest (to you) BATFE office (call during regular business hours) and discuss with a AGENT to see what he says, including how long their examination will take and how long it would take to have your firearms returned to you. Also ask what fees are involved. That's what I would do.

I think Batman was a Pedophile behind the Mask !

Oddly, given California's position on most things, coyotes are nothing more than a moving target.

Yes. Perhaps we should send them out individually looking for cougars and get them to socialize the big cats.

Wonder if they ate some of "Skimpy's Revenge"?
