Has anyone gone the opposite way with these- installing wood stocks instead of a handguard? I went with this over a normal Henry for the pistol grip. I wonder if the .45-70 stock will fit since none of the Big Boys have a pistol grip; looking at pictures it seems the bottom tang is part of the receiver.

I picked it up! I need to oil the bolt or something, the lever catches a bit. Time to sit around and cycle it a few hundred times while watching Wind River and Jurassic World.
 The pistol grip feels great. Rifle is a bit heavy but not that different from a 20" Rossi .44 I saw at the FFL. The hammer manipulation is completely different from my Henry .22- not as defined a snap, much longer (duh), and no half cock. I also picked up 200 rounds of 180 grain Remington soft points. It's not what I wanted (Lucky Gunner had bad accuracy in his .44 X) but it's better than no ammo. $44 a box is better than what I saw on ammoseek. This will be my intro to reloading. The box says 1600fps, presumably out of an 8" revolver with the cylinder gap. I'm undecided as to which direction to go with this. Leave it stock, add a handguard, or go with wood stocks. I went with this over the standard model for the pistol grip; I think I can use the .45-70 pistol grip stock.  Attached File |

Probably have to do some inletting and get a different lever. DOnt think the x uses the same stock mounting as the Big Boys. |

They feel like something on a toy rifle from the 80s |

I'm going to reply to that tonight or see if I can talk to them on the phone.My guess is that all the normal centerfire rifles can use the same stock as long as they have the same tang. I have no guess on frontend interchangeability. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I emailed Henry about stock interchangeability and got an answer I didn't understand. [ You can order replacement wood on Henry's website. The wood is listed by model # and the X appears to be grouped with other pistol grip rifles. Assumption would be the stock fits. Unknown if that would include the forearm also though? ETA: see your pic with the metal forearm - if that fits seems safe to assume a wood forearm would also fit! |

I almost bought one of these about 5 months ago. Popped up in a local BI Mart that was a special order and they guy backed out. They were asking $725 for it. It was just so heavy that I hesitated. Went back for it the next day after sleeping on it and it was gone

That’s cool that you could go to a wood stock.
The only real downside is paying for a second stock set. I need to check them out again. Maybe I’m being to close minded on the plastic. |

Didn't realize how tough it was to find these. Anyone finding these online?
