CFM chuck123wapati Posted yesterday at 05:16 PM CFM Report Posted yesterday at 05:16 PM 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.

Members Thadrick Posted 21 hours ago Members Report Posted 21 hours ago 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. Quote
Members DieselTech Posted 21 hours ago Members Report Posted 21 hours ago Nice work. It looks great. Quote

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. 2 hours ago, DieselTech said: Nice work. It looks great. Thank you.

Members Thadrick Posted 18 hours ago Members Report Posted 18 hours ago 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 Quote

Contributing Member Samalan Posted 3 hours ago Contributing Member Report Posted 3 hours ago Nice work and useful. But then you always do a great job on all your stuff. Quote
Members MarshalWill Posted 49 minutes ago Members Report Posted 49 minutes ago (edited) That looks great, Chuck. I never did like those commercial lever crap wraps. I like something that doesn't shift around when it's used. I've made all mine by doing a simple double wrap but I like the look of yours better. Very nice job, pard. Here's what mine look like. At least until I need another one, now. Even these had a tendency to slide around the lever until I started with one loop around the trigger guard area. Edited 48 minutes ago by MarshalWill Quote
