My son bought a new rifle and showed me this clicker-stamped sew-on thing on the net, actually said it was handcrafted. I didn't know running a clicker press was considered a craft. Well, anyway, it can be done differently, especially for a Henry lol. The 1/4" veg tan lace, skived and burnished, took about an hour of prep. Finished with real sinew, stained Bison brown.

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

Looks a lot better than mine. Those big boys are awesome!  I've had two now in 44mag and even my g daughter  loves shooting them. My newest lever action is a rossi in 454 casull and it's a kick in the shorts but the rossi isn't that impressive when it comes to feeding. The Henry feeds so much better.

At least it's a bit different. It's a sweet gun for sure, his is 45 70, it'll launch a water bottle lol.

I watched a friend shoot a buffalo three times through the lungs with a 4570 and it didnt even grunt.  Then the herd started running and we had to take it down with a 338 ultra.

So if your buffalo hunting, head shots are where its at.  Sorry, Im just remembering the good ol days. LOL
