So every retailer I have talked to won't order the All Weather Henry because Henry has been nonresponsive about when they'd be shipping this gun again. I can't find any stainless pistol caliber lever action (besides Rossi) under $1400-1500 which is my top end.
So....how bad is the recoil on 45-70 lever guns really? There are a couple nice Marlins here in the classifieds or I can grab a new Henry all weather in 45-70 for just over $1k.
