Hmm, that "hobo" looks awfully familiar. :-)

Which model henry does he soft stroke. Just the Golden or any of them. Couldn't make out the picture, was just a blur. GW

I believe he can do any model I sent him my sons Henry youth model and it came back smoother and fills like it was getting smoother after shooting it with my son last weekend and the soft stroke make it easier to shot as it is closer to the length i am use to on my 73s. The rifle in his video is a golden boy.

Ok. Maybe I am the only one who does not know but what is a soft stroke?

Soft stroking a 22 is a DQ

[Chili Ron]

It's a easy mod that widder came up with and will work with any of the Henry 22 rifles. If you take off the cover and work the action you can see there is a lot of un needed movement in the lever and the lever will stop forward movement by hitting a shelf . What widder came up with is to put a nylon 1/4" spacer in which stops the unnecessary lever movement and at the same time you don't feel the metal bang of the lever hitting the metal shelf. He also does a few other things to make it run smoothly.

I thought you had something similar in your 73... the solf steel lever and lifter

Nice, I still wonder if it would work in other Henry made rifles like the BBs?

[Lone Dog, SASS #20401]

Reckon that can be done with a Marlin 39?

[Widder, SASS #59054]

After Lefty and Billy stopped shooting the 'Soft Stroke', I no longer had any concerns of it having a 'melt down'.

 

I don't know where the brick of ammo disappeared, but my guess is that 300-400+ rounds were fired thru it on Thursday by as many Pards who wanted to shoot it. And, nothing seem to fail or any gremlins pop up.

 

My thanks to Lefty and Billy for the video. I think I owe them a rifle mod.....
