Swords book leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to production information. The problem is, it's the only reference available. This may soon change however. If you look at the photos in Swords book, you'll see that most of the original guns and gear are from the Les Quick collection. Les has been collecting Henry's for 30 plus years and his knowledge of these guns is vast.
For the past 10 years, he has been gathering production data as well as historical information on every Henry he could find. I just found out at the Vegas show, that he has completed his book and it should be ready within the next few months. I think this will be a very good reference on the Henry Rifle. Adios, Buck Logged. I just got off the phone with Les and he tells me the book is at the printers and it is his hope is to have it ready by mid April. If everything is on schedule, it will first appear at the Colorado Gun Collectors show in Denver, the middle of May.
