I am thinking of expanding my Henry Rifle collection to include a Mares Leg in 22lr.

My experience with the company's rifles has been very positive and their customer service is top notch.

Anybody have one?? Comments??

Wayne,

I like that Big Boy Mares Leg. Belt hoster and all.

Warren,
I was thinking for the 22lr model just basically to have as an addition to my collection.
Naturally it will get the occasional workout on the range or plinking.

An update on the Mares Leg.

I finally got the Mares Leg a couple of days after Christmas and within 1/2 hour had it out on the outdoor range and ran about 150 rounds through it before it got way too cold for me.

Now the snow at the range is waist deep to a tall Indian,so I will be getting it broken in at a nearby indoor range until about April when the outdoor range reopens.

First shots showed it to be right on target at 50 yds and no malfunctions even in the bitter cold.

I went to the indoor range yesterday after Church. Gosh! It was colder inside the range than out!!!

I managed to get off 150 more rounds and the Mares Leg was spot on.

Functioned flawlessly. I don't have the holster for it but maybe it might just be my truck gun.

I am thinking about putting a Skinner peep sight on it and Hi-Viz front sight. But that is a project for sometime later,hopefully when it warms up......soon.

First off,Mudbone would make a super nice holster for it and a case as well.

Then he pretty much would what I am thinking of doing and that is put a Skinner peep sight on it as well as a Hi-Viz front sight.

Then he would probably take the rig down to the melon patch and probably start shooting some snakes with it!!

I have know Mudbone for many years. Consider him a true friend.

As do I and many others here Wayne. You're right on though, think you called that one spot on.
