I'm git'n closer to joining the group...
Update:
If I hadn't mentioned this before, my LGS ordered a 41 at the Shot Show...that'd be the 2016 Shot Show.
I stopped by the shop yesterday, and asked if they were at the 2017 Shot show, and if they talked to whoever they ordered the Henry from? ...Jim, one of the owners, says, "I didn't go, cuz of my bad foot, Katie went and I don't know if she talked to them about the 41 or not?" He went on and said, "many times those orders get canceled at the 6 month mark, if they fail to deliver".
So, Jim picks up the phone and calls that distributor...and it turns out that distributor has the steel BB 41 in both, carbine and Rifle. I had to make a quick decision, (My Marlin has a 20" barrel and I love that, and I figured 16.5" would be too short to my liking) ...SO I told him to bring in the Rifle. The price will be $689 (about 735 with MN tax) Not as low as some prices I've heard, but fair enough, and I do love my LGS and want them to remain alive and profitable. I'll probably see it within the next week. Just to celebrate, I'm hittin' the range today, with a bag full of 41's and the marlin.
