So I ordered and paid for the Henry H001TSPR and it came in yesterday. Brand new from distributor. I went by my FFL today, and I was the one that opened the box.
The front sight is installed so badly, that I'm absolutely certain that this brand new rifle will have to be rebarreled.
Because my FFL is great, it's still sitting there pre-4473, because he is more set-up to mail it back to Henry.
Has anyone else had a Henry that was ruined out of the box?
The sight was installed SO wrong that the dovetail is warped and flayed open. There is sunlight visible under the sight, and the sight itself is noticeably crooked when looking down the irons. I took a bunch of pics, and we've already contacted the distributor and the manufacturer.
Did I do the right thing? Would y'all have just brought it home? I am just extremely, overwhelmingly disappointed.
Am I just expecting too much from the Henry name?
