my CCP renewal took waaaay longer than advertised. I could understand a new permit but a renewal should be easier. FWIW that was Forsyth Co.

@Mtbcoach very jealous man. I've wanted the 454 Alaskan for a long time. I passed on a great deal a while back and instantly regretted it.
Chatham Co is a "Democrat" county - no offense, but for gun matters that is a bad thing typically.
I bitched a good bit about it though as you use a web site to do the applications, and then they make you print them out and take them up to them.
It then took 4 weeks to get them back.
UNBELIEVABLE
3 MOS - -OMG - - you can almost get the Federal Gov to do a Form 4 for a Title II item in that time frame.

- - I thought we were talking permits - - CCP - not sure here. BTW - background checks in Chatham on EVERY permit now. pfshsesht
Don't get me wrong, I love my county - - good people - - Sheriff's here don't mess around - no lines at that department LOL
I also vote whatever I feel like, so no bash on the Dems, but there are a lot of f'ing Yippie homeboys/girls who would take your gun if they could.
Same for Durham County. Well...not sure about the sheriff's affiliation, but both my original issue and my renewal took 90 days.
First thing I did was search in hopes of discovering this was fake news. Appears not.

oof, that's pretty bad....
Just came in from shooting 60 rounds through our Henry H001 lever action 22. I love plinking with this rifle! I have cinder blocks set up on some of the lower paddock fence posts that run along the ravine the is a natural border for our property. So it makes a natural range to shoot down hill with the far bank of the ravine as a natural mound. We have talked about getting a trap thrower and only shooting steel shot. My general shooting station is about 50' from our front door.

Was just checking out Henry's two new 410 lever shotguns, very cool yet very pricey $900

Love my H004 (Golden Boy .22LR) and for a couple years have been searching for an H006M (.357). One day!
@Rice have you found that some LR does not cycle well? I had one box of Winchester Super X that kept jamming just above the bore. I am running all the other different brands through it now to see if any other hangs up.
Do you have the larger loop lever? I got mine when the original handle finish chipped and it started to rust. Henry gave me the new larger loop for free under warranty.

No feed troubles yet, but the action on these buns is very simple and fairly easy to diagnose. If a good cleaning of the lift gate and feed ramp doesn't fix it then it's time to look for a small nick or dent mucking things up.
I don't have any attraction to the mare leg lever. Mine is just a plain lever.
Found some .22 short at a local shop. I was finally able to get the boys out to put a few rounds through their great-grand father's rifle. Winchester 1890 model.
Based on the serial number, it was made in 1911. Still shoots well.

Something to consider is the OAL of the rounds, with no first hand experience with those rounds, I probably shouldn't chime in. I found issues with my Henry in .45 colt and running the 325g "bear" loads. Upon checking their OAL and bullet profile, it pushes the specs for the rifle. I could hand feed but cycling the lever didn't always yield a reload.
I did pick the Big Boy carbine due to the short barrel and large loop lever, having pansy hands, I often wear gloves and liked the extra room, however, it makes it harder to do the "Rifleman" reload (sorry, only old phawks who watched 60's TV western shows will get the reference)...
The Rifelman, or Stink Eye as Heather and I refer to him is on every Sat morning here, multiple episodes.
I like the larger loop because of larger hands. I think that you are correct in your OAL statements Jerry.

My only experience with their customer service ended with me trading the gun away out of frustration. All done over the phone before email was a hugely common thing. Maybe 2003? It was not a warranty issue.
Ruger looks nice - compact for carry and 9 MM vs 380. Revolvers don't jam up as easily as semi-autos, too
My current "around the house" gun is a brand new Glock 17 that needs some rounds through it. I have a 7" Lone Wolf threaded barrel on it, but it seems to not like my sub sonic hollow point. I can just see it jamming up while a coyote eats me in the back yard ;\ Of course i am not sure of the options for threaded barrel revolvers

Not sure if I ever posted up my AR9 replacement. Traded it for some cash and this blue'ish from factory Glock 17.
Its goofy, but quiet. Has some raised Trijicon sites on it to see over the suppressor. I already had the barrel from a G17L that came before my old AR9.

Anyone have ideas on a bun safe brand that is a good value - I can't break the bank. We are moving to a new home and I will need a safe.
Some stuff from CList I thought would be amusing:
If only this was a safe, it would be fun:
Pepsi machine safe 275 OBO
Lots of stuff here:
Selling my Shop out
This looks like about the right size - I don't have many buns, but I do have a lot of ammo :\
