Henry H001T and Marbles 009813 Tang Sight
Has anyone heard anything bad about a place called Hoguns (in San Antonio) regarding their gunsmithing talent?
I'm going to take my new Henry H001T over there and have them drill/tap for a tang sight.
Also, when mounting a Marbles tang sight on a Henry H001T, does the sight need two holes drilled/tapped, or does the sight use the existing screw on at the rear of the tang and therefore only need one hole drilled/tapped?

Nevermind, I sent an email to Henry and they gave me the straight poop on that.
I also picked up my henry today from the FFL dealer. It's heavier than I thought it would be, but the action is smooooooooooth.
I've now entered that quasi-purgatory state where the gun is in the house, but the wife wants to wrap the box (with the gun in it - grrr). This means I won't be able to actually shoot it until the weekend after Christmas.

Actually you do need to shoot the gun now. Most gun shops have a very limited time in which you can return the gun if it doesn't work right. She has every right to make you stash it in the box until Christmas, but all holiday traditions aside you need to make sure it works right before it gets wrapped. Even if you do have problem later, Henry is very good about making wrong things right, though.

Like you said, Henry is real good about fixing stuff. Besides, the dealer I got it from is in Ohio, and I'm in Texas. I'd be going to Henry if anything went sideways on it.Jason wrote:Actually you do need to shoot the gun now.

Last night, I pestered my wife into letting me have the gun early.
