Is it a 66, or is it a Henry?

Okay, top is an Uberti Henry.

Bottom is a Navy Arms 66. (Sadly, the saddle ring is missing...)

What's in the middle?   According to the receipt, it's an Uberti 66.  And it sure looks like a 66.

But from this side, it kinda looks like a Henry.   :)

Yeppers, I found one of them thar Uberti made 66's in .22LR.  Really glad I got it.   The action is as stiff as all get out, and even though it's "used," I don't think it's ever been fired.  It's a nice gun, but I don't know which rifle to pair it with if I ever get to another one of those side matches that uses a .22 with a main match rifle.    Guess I gotta get a 76 to go with 'em so I'd also have the rifle caliber repeater of the same basic design.  

And I REALLY want either a functional reproduction Volcanic or a Mare's Leg based on a 66/73 to complete the set!
