I'm a Marine Corps machine gunner veteran and when I first went in, we were given a familiarization fire (fam-fire) of the M-870 shotgun. The instructor said the 12 gauge pump had an international sound language with the pump action. No matter the language, most people know that sound and will turn and choose another direction. This bad-ass little weapon from Henry should have the same effect on any dumb-ass home intruder when they hear that lever action. Nice job, Henry!
I have always held that truism the sound as a deterrent
Alan does such a great job reviewing these guns. I’ve talked with him on the phone and he does such a wonderful job in explaining things and giving one a real idea of expectations. I also really enjoy the super slow motion on the action when firing the gun. I am really looking forward in visiting the store and meeting him in person. Thanks so much for taking the time in doing these videos. I know how much the setup and breakdown is involved with video shoots.
Closest thing to a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range.
best comment =)
Only what you see, pal.
Uzi nine mill-e-meter
Hey man! You can’t do that!.....WRONG! 😂
Somebody pls explain
It’s a great gun, and as you say, it’s a lot of fun to shoot. I’m in a wheelchair and while I love my 12 gauge it has become harder to handle the weight as I’ve aged (70 now). My wife can handle this as well and that makes it a go to for home defense.
If it also chambered 45 Colt like the Judge or Governor does then it'd be well worth it. As for having a purpose other than fun to shoot, it would be a good truck gun for close up vermin. Especially if they find a way to chamber 45 Colt. Out in the bush where I live I can think of plenty it'd be good for.
About the price.
This is a fully made in america warrantied firearm from a legacy company.
Its a specialty design.
And its a quality piece.
I see how people are saying its a little high priced but its really not that high.
Its a firearm you will likely handdown to your child or grandchild someday, so i mean i guess it just depends on how you are looking to invest.
The MSRP is much higher than the retail price. I just bought one brand new for $750.00. It took about a week to ship from Henry to the gun shop I bought it from. I don't regret buying it at all, what a fun gun!!! Looks badass hanging on my wall too
I’ve seen a few videos of people firing these traditionally from the shoulder or like a pistol, but shooting from the center chest makes sense. Really cool
As a retired gun dealer I can tell you Henry was a pleasure to deal with when I was in business. Super nice and down to earth good people.
If you don't like lever-action guns, there's something wrong with you.
If you like lever guns and don't like Henry something is really wrong with you.
I'm a liberal and I ain't afraid of semi and full autos being pulled out the market. Every man, woman and young adult should own a lever action rifle. No terrorists, authoritarian military army or police state can defeat the people with these big boys. Take out snipers and distance shooters with 45 70s, take out front liners with 30 30 and tactical specials, then go around clear up the traitors left agonizing on the floor and their shitting leaders close range in the head with this good boy Henry axe.
@@danielgomez1923take snipers out with a 45-70.... ok. You can always tell a liberal. But, you can't tell em much..... btw, find me a new full auto that's on the market. go ahead, i'll wait.
@@thewatcher611 Why a full auto. I like all lever action rifles. I'm sure that we could have taken out the soviet union before its demise sneaking an equal amount of military personnel using lever action rifles just to prove how handy they are. Just good tactical drills. 45 70 taking out bad guys and staying behind a bit protecting the ones going in ahead. Then 30 30 and specials lever actions taking out dudes inside the soviet bases in close contact battles. if you ran out of bullets pull out ruger new vaqueros in each hand and when you run out have a partner to cover you while you reload. if you want a harder weapon just add a granade launcher to a lever action or might as well bring out the bazookas.
Nothing wrong with a lever action but, with a pump, you stay on terget better because your finger, stays on the trigber. With the lever, you have a tendency to SLAP the trigger when acquiring the site after every shot. And your a FOOL or a LIBERAL ,one of the same, if you think that your going to out shoot someone with a semi auto. Unless your super proficient or a pro shooter with that Vaquero or Lever action.
P.S.
Unless you have been on the Barrel end of someone's gun, keep your Opinions to yourself, or at the least, think before speaking. Fear, panic, tunnel vision, heart raises, sweat all contributes.
I read that Abraham Lincoln had a Henry! Good company - I had an issue with my lever action .22 and they immediately sent me a metal upgrade for a plastic part that was the problem, with detailed instructions for self-installation. I've already begun shopping for one of these very cool shotguns!
I've been looking for a .410 for pest control on my grandma's ranch, glad to see companies are still making it outside of Taurus.
While I do agree, I think Taurus has got the .410 market pretty secured. I've long admired their shot revolvers.
These along with the shockwave and tac 14 are FANTASTIC trail guns for hiking and camping.
There should be 150K subs minimum on this channel. OEO and Alan in particular create excellent videos that are well presented and packed with info and usually do all that in around 10 minutes. Keep up the great work men!
You are a very good instructor, illustrator, story teller. Great work
I'm thinking this would make a great home defense piece. Short enough to maneuver through tight spots, but big enough to be easy to hang on to and powerful enough to be effective. You could load it so the first one or two have bird shot and the rest are 00 buck in case the intruder didn't get the message. Then if there are more of them, you have a great club for whacking the daylights out of them.
I really like my Henry .22 golden boy and the 30-30. The lever action is silky smooth.
I was thinking the same thing seems really under appreciated
At close range birdshot will blow holes through people, for home defense every round could be birdshot and you would probably see no drop in effectiveness unless you have a huge home
Makes also a nice bike gun or a truck gun. Some Terminator 2 vibes
I think it's ideal huh. Great home defender .
Nice little backpack or bug out packer for sure. Another channel reviewed it going through ballistic gel... 9 inch penetration at 18 ft with the 4 buck... Slug unloaded it's energy at penetration (mass wound damage will take a lotta starch out of anything). This gun is highly underrated!
I have seen absolutely no ads. I just know Henry because its a friggen Henry.
I've been considering getting one of these for home defense. Thanks for the information and the review.
This answers all my questions, thanks for sharing.
Great informative reviews as always... I love my .410 axe. Excellent home defense as well as a great fun gun and when I protect my garden I use birdshot with the squirrels...
I bought an 1894 Remlin (Marlin) from these guys by internet sight unseen. They sent me a good rifle for a fair price. I stripped it down and did my fluff and buff to all that ragged machining inside. Now 8 years later it is a great rifle.
@Howie Felterbush lol you got me. Could'a worded that better I guess. The point was the Remlins are fine if you find a good one, and most were good ones. And I suppose the Remlin stigma can be a negotiating point on price.
I will gladly buy a Henry Axe as soon as I can find one in stock.
$800 is nothing for a unique lever action .410 with blued steel and American walnut.
I own a Henry H001 .22 lever and a Henry H012 .38/.357 lever action.
They make fine firearms here in the USA and I think they are worth every penny.
These people are amazing. Love this store
Excellent review! Super-thorough and informative. Thanks for posting.
Great video, awesome presentation, great staff. thank you
Well, I guess this one's getting added to the wishlist. Thanks for the review!
My best friends dad works up there in rice lake, Wisconsin. And Henry is such a great company
Allen, thank you for this presentation. For my purposes the AXE 410 would be perfect. Although high-priced I'd be willing to part with $820 for it. I love the fact that it is a lever action and can load five shells in the chamber.
Have a Henry .22 I love it. Need this!!410
Different and unique. Loved this one.
OMG where has this been my whole life.... yes please
Ill buy one.... For half the asking price!
Go buy a plastic gun.
and only if it will cut down a tree
@@luvfreedom1470 I can buy a wood furnished shockwave for 200 bucks, just saying.
@@Dies1r4e Have you ever fired a Henry? The quality matches the price.
@@iankiller1 Yes I have, I own a historical one, and I inherited one of the newer ones from a family member that passed. I have several guns in my collection that dwarf the cost of these rifles, which are nice, but in honesty if you take a 500 dollar Rossi, spend an hour or two polishing the internals, you end up with something in the same league, maybe with slightly less good wood.
these rifles are not practical hunting tools, not practical fighting tools, not practical sporting tools, not practical self defense tools. At the end of the day that leaves them in a niche of "fun to shoot", and for 1000 dollars I can find a lot of things much more fun to shoot...or pay more and buy something of real historic value.
As a collector, shooter, and sportsman there are simply better values then the price gouging that Henry offers. Not every rifle can be a six figure collectible, but for four digits one can find some fun and fine historic pieces, or buy a much more functional for a role modern weapon.
I bought this gun in the Brass version, no regrets. I really like this gun. It’s compact and good for home defense with the variety of defense loads and outside the house with the various game loads. I mounted a Laser Max Spartan- laser/light combo for nighttime use.If you can’t find ammo locally, it’s available on line. I have the Henry 357 Carbine with side gate and it’s a really nice gun also.
Awesome thanks 👍
Sir, i love this review! You are quite the pro at it! Plus you reminde me of my father.
I love this channel more and more. Your videos are addictive.
I'd buy one, but at almost $1000...ummm, no. At $500, I'd be in.
I'd buy a full size 45-70. Those are some fine shooting rifles.
Damn, I was excited. The finish looked cheap too. At first at least.
Sinjin I'm right there with yea I wanted 1 u till I saw that price tag ouch
Well if you want quality you better be ready to pay. Henry's are heirloom quality
@Slob on nob I'll say the base model 22 lever isn't too terrible. You can find it under $300.
Great job on this video man!!!
Loved the review. New sub here. Loved the attitude & delivery of the presenter.
He’s excellent. The entire operation is good.
I love Henry lever actions.
Yeah, I want one!
Gonna get one
That is quite an interesting piece. Definitely on the short list for me
Thank you for your thorough review!
Thank you for a great review. I had heard about it, didn’t know it was a 410. Makes it real interesting.
I grew up watching Rifleman every saturday and sunday.. Have been looking for a starter gun.. My first shotgun was a 410 when I was 9.. The 1st rabbit that darted across me and my buddies path ..My mom cooked it up for us..
this looks perfect for home defence and lots of fun to plank with
those short lever action are so beautiful, but freeking expensive...
worth the price henry dont make gsrbage
As a 410 shotgun, that would be pretty practical. The Mare's Leg type with a bullet, I think is kind of just a plaything really. This would be fun to hunt rabbits, squirrels and grouse with. Short enough to pack in a back pack, hang off a saddle horn on a horse, carry easy on a 4wheeler.....I like compact, but useful guns.
Love it - 45 Long Colt please... Or add a side gate to the mares leg finally.
Soon as I looked at the notification the first thing to go through my mind was "Wanted, Dead or Alive" with Steve McQueen.
Not to be nit picking, but I think Mcqueen's rifle was the
" Mares Leg " rifle !
I can hear him rapid firing it now !
Lol !
😉👍
@@sleeve8651
Not nitpicking at all D. Just useful trivia to old farts like us. As a kid I had a chrome version of the rifleman's rifle that fired rolled caps. But what I always wanted was Johnny Yuma's sawed-off double-barrel.
Is that the same kind as what Chuck Connors (as: "Lucas McCain") in the TV Show called: "The Rifleman?"
That triggers looks like that action. Can't wait to see it in action/demonstration. I bet it's fabulous. Sure looks it. 💖🙏👑
Thorough review. Thanks
Dead or alive, mares leg... McQueen!
Yes it does evoke that memory.
That's the first thing I thought of when I saw this. 🧐😀👍🏾
Yep
Very cool, a gun with my name. My surname is Mares. :)
McQueen used a 44-40.
Pretty as this is, I just see $800 of wasted potential. Could have made 45 LC and left room for the 410 shells, and that alone would have sold it for me. Not to mention they could have gone with .357 or .44 mag, which would have been awesome in a side loading mares leg and more versatile than this.
henry has both of those in this configuration I think.
@@patriotsrebelsrogues7332 They do, just without the side loading gate I believe.
@@GreenEyeDemon :| what you need all that for? put a spike on the loading cap and some lead in the handle and you have a perfectly usable weapon. stab boom bash what more you need in a boom stick
@@patriotsrebelsrogues7332 he's clearly being sarcastic.. have you ever seen a mammoth tusk barrel? If u have please give me the deets
@@GreenEyeDemon what!?! No cup holder?
Great video again!!
The 410 is what I started my kids out on because they were very young, no kick. Moved to .22LG then on to bigger, stronger, how to brace against something. I now teach each grandchild at same age their dads were. Teach kids young, remove the forbidden taboo & your kids will not have reason to sneak around or horrible accidents happen. I was raised around all types of firearms, was nothing for a uncle come back from hunting, prop whatever they'd used in a corner & yes loaded. More unloaded assumptions cause more accidents than loaded. I taught my boy's young because several cops even back then told me where you live I hope you always have & carry. If we get a call it's going to be at least 40 minutes but probably longer response time. I started thinking about if someone broke in what would happen to my kids if I didn't make it, what if it's more than one? I taught them everything possible from loading, loading, bracing, which to best use, to clean them. Both are very capable of putting food on the table for their families. I slept with a loaded pistol under my pillow. My kids was taught just as we were as kids, they knew it was there but never once touched it. This new taboo is bad for our kids & grandkids. Every Sunday, holiday, ect was at my grandma's, it was nothing to have 1w, 15 ➕ ➕ plus kids running around or through her home, never, not once was the first of us kids get in trouble trying to sneak to touch & if you were 4 or 5 when a uncle came in hunting he'd say come on let's get this ready for dinner. Just please start teaching your children. Firearms aren't the problem, never has been. Problem is what evil that person holding it has in them. The mass shootings in schools these kids or most were on prescribed Rx meds that specifically state do not administer to people under the age of 18, yet they were & not just one rx but several, doctors ignore warnings that state giving to under 18 can be dangerous, side effects unknown. Ignorance is a huge issue not firearms. Kids social skills went out when people started buying 5 & 7 year olds cell phones, never outside to meet or play with neighborhood kids, video games took the place of being out playing, feelings can't be hurt & no child learns how to lose because we have to make sure each get trophies. Kids must learn young how to deal with losing or by the real world comes into their lives working they haven't the first clue how to deal with real life. Could go on. But it's already too long a comment.
This reminds of a shotgun from the show Firefly. Love it!
It really does, also great reference!
omg I was thinking the exact same thing. I love that show so much, I wish they would have brought it back.
@@JessHull It's been so long they would have to reboot the show with a new cast and it would not be the same.
This thing is GORGEOUS
I like the bigger loop action on the mares leg but 410 sounds dope might get one for moms bday
I just realized y'all are a business. Can't wait to visit
They’re excellent.
Super nice an well designed. Wild West look is cool.
Great review, thanks
Nice. I'll have to check this one out.
Great videos. Thank you for sharing profesor!!!!!!!
Love levers. Really want one of those.
Those slow motion b-rolls are the best.
With the right ammo, seems like a good crowd control tool. Rubber etc.
My thoughts exactly. The right less lethal rounds and this becomes a tool for dealing with “peaceful protestors”. Always backed up by a solid PDC of course.
Great review!
Should have put a saddle ring on it, rather than sling studs, that would make it compatible with single point slings. More practical for this platform.
Saddle ring would look cool on it. Easy to mod I’d think
Mares legs look neat but are pretty much useless. Up here in Canada we don't have to deal with the "short barrelled rifles or shotguns" Bullshit. So we often will put a full rear stock on them, makes them way more useful.
One of the most arbitrary laws here in the US, would definitely be my first to get rid of due to it's pointless nature. If someone wanted a short gun to "conceal" they would get a pistol right? Government is pretty dumb sometimes.
Kaden Wallis haha yeah, we have more than our fair share of arbitrary firearms laws up here to, just not the "short barrelled" garbage law. If the firearm has an operational (can be fired while in that formate) over all length of 26 inches or more it's considered a standard rife or shotgun, if it's under 26 inches it's considered a handgun (different rules/laws apply). There are many exceptions though such as the mares legs that are under 26 inches are still considered rifles or shotguns not handguns under our laws. Hell, they sell (no joke) 12 gauge 3 inch mag break action shotguns (double and single) with 8 inch barrels! You can buy it like any other shotgun with a full rear stock and on the shelve beside it they sell a production pistol grip for it. If you install the pistol grip it's a handgun, leave the full rear on it a regular shotgun lol. Same as folding stocks, If it folds and can fire under the 26 it's a handgun but install a rivet to prevent the fold (or telescopic) and the same firearm is a standard rifle or shotgun, literally 30 seconds with a file on the rivet head would change its legal classification , just completely arbitrary...
well spoken . good video. thanks
Great job! Any idea on a budget for this piece?
At last. Dream firearm.
Love my Henry 22..sooo smooth..
Josh Randall (WDorA) would of loved this gun as a replacement for mare's leg.
i wonder how it performs being shot one-handed.

With a one-handed reload while driving through a gate
Awesome! Thanks!
Awesome review!!
$970.00 ticket price for a sawed off .410 - only in your wildest dreams!
Street is closer to 800
Henry suggests that they encourage their dealer to give discounts...
@snoopy dubnation a .410 slug is pretty much came caliber as 45/70 as far as the projectile goes
YES I WANT ONE. ! Have been waiting over 8 months for one. FROM 2 different places. And I am constantly getting an e-mail from henry about a new gun they are coming out with. WHY. ?
They can't get the stuff they ALREADY make out, SO WHY come out with something new. ?
The reason it only takes the 2.5in shells is because the reciever is the same one they use for 45-70 and that's the correct overall length...
Oh! I LOVE THE BEATS BY DRE!
Wow. I want one! Thanks.
I'll take one! My birthday is next month!
tomorrow is 55 trips around the Sun for me.
Happy birthday you two!
Pretty cool.
I'd love one of those for home defence! I don't suppose you ship to Scandinavia? Is there an European equivalent?
You can get an m lok rail for it look it up, after market parts for other Henry’s will fit on here. I saw a video where a Henry axe had a rail, a top pictinny rail with a sight and a flash light
I use #4 Buck in my 410.
I'm surprised they didn't make one that's rated for 45 long as whell so you can put a rifled choke and make use of it as a mares leg or they can make a full sized like the way I described
Wow, it's beautiful !
What a beauty that gun is!
If it was a 10 gauge or 12 gauge the $1,000 asking price wouldn't be too much but for 4:10 that's a lot
Back in the day in Scotland a 410 shotgun was considered a ladies sporting gun.
leslie phillip
It is a ladies gun.... .410 is a round for killing snakes.
It still is...
Straight from Henry, the Henry Axe can handle slugs just fine with a SKEET bore invector choke. Various invector chokes for the Axe using different loads are available through Henry Pride, Carlson, or Briley...even SS Turkey loads.
Is this the only henry shotgun you have? I like it real easy
love lever action buuut if my henry golden boy 22 mag is not square when you work the lever it jams about ever 3 rounds. read up on it . seems to be common. but it's sure pretty :) and very hard to clear jam
I love this gun !!¡ .410 /.45 heck yeah !!!!!
Need to get one , vert nice!
If you are going to get a 410 shotgun know that 410 ammo is typically more expensive than 12 gauge. I would recommend getting a MEC 410 shotshell press. It will pay for itself within a few hundred rounds.
I'm reloading buckshot, three 000 with a velocity over 1700 feet per second for 37 cents a round material cost. Compare this to a buck to a buck fifty for defensive rounds from the store if you can find it. Birdshot is 17 cents a round material cost compared to 60-80 cents a round in the store if you can find it.
I'm getting one! I wonder how it'd shoot a few inches shorter?
nice piece of kit
