Henry released the Supreme without saying anything, not on their website either, but sellers on GB currently have them. Just a heads up for those of you who were waiting. |
 New Henry Supreme - 300blk / 5.56mm Lever-Action Rifle! |
Sine misericordia, sine pœnitentia.

Havent seen any reviews since SHOT show time, i dont think anyone else knows they came out either |
I'm not lazy, I just really enjoy doing nothing.

It's already a niche gun and at that nosebleed price it's a snooze fest that will collect dust in gun stores. For the same money you could get an AR in 300 blackout plus a silencer. |

All those other calibers don’t help, if you already have a .30 cal can. I think that a repeater with the option of no action noise, and less gas in the face, seems like a good idea. Of course, with a sight it’ll be a bit chunky and it doesn’t seem like there’s a good way to mount a light. |

Can .357 mag match 7.62x39 energy from a rifle? |
 The Henry Supreme is Finally Here! |

The 300blk is awesome in a bolt gun. Literally half the sound of an AR if using subs. But this rifle is so niche I just dont get it. It appeals to the nostalgia crowd but they chamber it in a cartridge the nostalgia crowd hates on. I dont get it and at a price point that ridiculous imo. I saw this last night on YT and thought $800-900 tops but at $1200+ is so Henry's style. Im just going with im a poor/cheap ass. These lever gun prices are wild to me. |

I think that it was a mistake to not release it with a polymer stock and handguard. A pistol option with an 8-10" barrel for those of us that Form 1 SBR everything would be great. |

I sell firearms produced by the finest child labor in the world, be it Filipino, Muslim, Mormon, Arizonan, or Texan.
| Wish they could make this in a caliber like 6.8 spc,6mm arc or 6.5 Grendel. I have been looking for a lever or pump in a light recoiling rifle that is nice and handy but still allows shots on whitetail out to 300 yards. Ended up with a savage 99 in 250 savage but one of these in 6.5 Grendel might be about perfect. I live and hunt in PA so semi autos arent legal for hunting. Can justify it for plinking as I have other levers and semi autos in 5.55 + 6.5 Grendel but if it was a plinking/ hunting rifle I would be all over it. |

It's an AR bolt, so happiness is a bolt and barrel away. |

I calculated the 7.62x39 as a 123gr at 2400 fps. At 100 yards they are about equal. At 150 yards the 357 mag is at about 900 ft-lb, and the 7.62x39 is at about 1000 ft-lb. |

Originally Posted By Trumpet: That could make a cool/weird/steampunk-ish SBR That’s what I’m thinking. I have a 338 Spectre Rem 700 I bought off Snipers Hide a decade ago, but it doesn’t reliably feed from the blind mag or the PTG AR mag conversion I had done to it. Been wanting a 300BO bolt gun that takes AR mags, but this might be the better play. |

| I'm taking a long, hard look at it as something I can carry through 49 states and possibly Canada, in an RV. It would seem to it that niche quite well. I'd like to see more calibers; like .308, for example. |

W/ the Henry, you're limited to 5 round mags in Canada unless you procure some Canadian specific 10 or 20 round mags that fit their pistol or non-semiauto rifle niche. |

Garand Tanker has a 16.5" barrel and I think that causes problems in Canada. I'm far from an expert, though. |

I'd like to see more calibers; like .308, for example. Browning BLR comes in a myriad of calibers and an assortment of configurations. I’d much rather have that than this Henry. https://www.browning.com/products/firearms/rifles/blr/blr-lightweight-81-stainless-takedown.html |

If the gun is built around the AR-15 size cartridges it won't be able to handle a 308. Would love to see a 6mm arc or 6.5 Grendel |
