ok... a person has a business and they advertise it. WOW! that's pretty exciting, especially coming from a blog.

I love irony and poetic justice - Barrack is going to sell a helluva lot of Henry repeaters!

I think they ought to do another ad declaring that Jesus shot a Henry when he fought the Pharisees.

I liked the posters quote:

"Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!" Ha ha

The guy is taking a risk in alienating all the people that voted for Obama. But, I suspect, most of those people aren't in the market for a Henry.

You might be quite surprised at the number of people who voted for Obama and are avid gun enthusiasts.

I personally burn 4-8,000 rounds a year at the range, mostly handloads.

You?

No risk, he knows his market.

Where does the gun/bible connection come from? That always seemed odd to me.

I bought my son a Henry. It was a nice rifle. Seems I made a good choice.
