With the popularity of the Cowboy Rifle, do you think we will see some more variations come out soon? I would love a Henry 1895 SBL.

I'd love to own a CO2 replica of the famous Sharps rifle......Of course it would have to be shell loading

Yes seen that one. Doesn't tickle my fancy. Hoping for a side shell ejector for some variety.

I don't think there is a market for them. The shell loading underlever being sold as "cowboy rifle" says it all really. They tweak that one to make the "Renegade" to cater for the "Jurassic World" market. I doubt they will make a Henry. If anything, they will probably make a Marlin first.

I don't know what I'm on about above. The rifle I put a picture of is a Marlin 1895 SBl.
I'm getting confused with the Henry 45/70 which is another nice looking underlever I wouldn't mind.

The typical Henry underlevers are loaded from the front of the tube, and no side gates. The latest ones have side gate loading. And to be honest, most of them looks the same! Except Winchester and Chiappa have top eject, while Marlin and Henry have side eject.🤯

Side eject might be more predictable.
I find with the Cowboy while most of the cartridges eject to the right and can mostly be caught in a bucket there are the occasional ones the manage to go off to the left.
Cheers Don
