Early in this year, 2017 I was notified by the "Henry Company" that they were going to produce a Lever Action chambered for the .327 Federal Magnum and that it would be ready in April but, so far none have shown up that I'm aware of. Anyone seen one in person yet?
Another question is: Will it be possible for this rifle to accommodate and function with the same versatility as the Revolvers, meaning shooting at least three of the four calibers the revolvers will handle? I do not see it as being as important in a rifle since recoil was the only problem for shooters with hand problems. A portion of this was just thinking and writing, hoping for the possibility but now I have some doubts. Don't think it will not be a deal breaker. Thank you!

Haven't seen one in person. Might be worth a call to Henry to ask your questions and get answers from the source.

Most new guns take time to fill the supply chain. Some new guns are long overdue and are highly sought after.

I have never been disappointed when calling a manufacturer direct. MUCH better than EM. Internet rumors about firearms companies are easily dealt with by a Toll Free call.

I highly recommend you call Henry , after I bought a rifle from them I called with a question which was answered quickly by their outstanding customer service rep.

Because of the late hour I found, on their web site, a place where I could send a message so I asked the same questions as well as asking for a catalog. If and when I receive a response I'll be glad to post it here if anyone else is interested.

Henry's website states they will start shipping in April. well it's still April, so I think they haven't started shipping yet

My daughter's 44 magnum lever action sometimes feeds 44 specials and other times jams. Your gun (sounds like you are going to buy) may or may not work well with shorter 32's. They would be safe, but they may jam. If you work the lever slowly my daughter's guns handles specials well, if you go fast the jams are more common.

So it may depend on if you want to do some quiet rabbit hunting in the back yard with a 32 S&W, or if you want to put 20 rounds in the mag and pretend it is a machine gun.

I'm in the same boat for another of Henry's new products. I'm searching all around for the new threaded octagon barrel .22 Frontier.

For some reason the combination of old school lever gun with a suppressor just seems neat....and why not? Because I can! America!

I have never been let down by Henry not releasing something they advertised, it just may take a bit. Last year it took most of the year to track down my stainless .45-70 lever, but guess what was under the tree come Christmas time!

I may take this advice and give em a ring....

I'm hoping someone buys one and gives a good range report. If it will reliably cycle .32 longs and H&Rs, I'll buy one in a heartbeat.
