I was wondering if the capacity comes in to play on a Henry Lever action in Massachusetts in 22 Long rifle? I was under the assumption that capacity in those don’t matter in mass as it’s a lever action and not semi auto? Thanks in advance for any input.

Technically, it's not about the fact it's a lever gun but the fact that it's a tubular magazine for a 22.
Regardless, it's G2G. Have fun!

Non detachable being the main part. Correct me if I'm wrong
If you are anywhere near Palmer, Nick's Sports Shop (5 minutes off exit (old) 8 from the Pike) has had Henry 22's and 22 Magnums seemingly on a regular basis.

Thanks!
Bought one for girlfriend. Loves it and use for silloutte shooting at the club. Use Iron sights only and kicks my boot. Great gun and mtg. I have the Henry Big Boy before the side gate load option and love it.
Very well built. Good luck. Hate to promote Cabelas, but the gave her 500 rounds with purchase.

The Henry is one of the most fun rifles I have, and everyone who has had a chance to shoot it ends up with a big smile on their face! With CCI Quiets it sounds like a pellet gun so no hearning protection is required. Do yourself a favor and get some of these "Prairie Popper" targets from Amazon. The price goes up and down on them, but if you have patience you can get them for as low as $9 each. They are spring loaded, so when you hit them they fall over then pop back into place. They come with spikes you can drive into theground, but they work better if attached to a wooden base.

They seem to be showing up more in recent months. Not sure where you mean by southern MA, but Nick’s in Palmer had one a few days ago.
If you’re up for a ride, KTP had the Classic, octagon, and magnum out on the racks as of last weekend. Prices were good, too.

Grabbed mine from Bass Pro as they had quite a few in stock. It was $349 and is the basic model. Replaced the front sight with the HiVis fiber optic version. Looking for the large loop lever now, but has been out of stock for a while now. I was surprised how accurate it was, and a lot of fun to shoot.

I've got one and have no complaints. I used it a few times during the winter months, and it made it much easier to load with cold hands. It's a very simple design that lets you pour rounds into a tube magazine, so I don't know what you would need to modify!

I’ve used my speed loader hundreds of times. It’s fool proof really. Load 15 rounds in just a few seconds.
FYI there isn’t anything to break on it. Solid tube, 2 end caps, and one spring. I’d be curious to know what broke?

Pump-action vs Lever-action...what are the advantages and disadvantages of either? I’m rather fond of my Pump-action Remington 7615P 556 rifle, although N.Y. made them forbidden in their bogus Safe Act...

I guess there's a spring or something attached to the cap..
