I’ve dealt with hundreds of companies in the fishing, hunting and shooting industries since becoming a full-time outdoor writer in 2005. My favorite of all of them is Henry Repeating Arms of Bayonne, New Jersey.
I’ve had a fascination with Henry lever-guns since 1985, when I saw the movie “Silverado” for the first time. Mal Johnson (played by Danny Glover) asking those bad guys “Do you know what a Henry rifle can do in the hands of someone who knows how to use it?” gave me goosebumps back then, and it still does today. |

| Danny Glover isn't a friend of free Americans, but I love that quote too. It's one of my Top 3 movie lines. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
