If I live long enough, my dream gun is a Henry BIG BOY Brass 44 Magnum Carbine. I would make it my Legacy gun for passing down to a son. I want the extra 'custom' receiver with name etc engraved.
God that is a beautiful rifle. I really admire the traditional approach to producing and marketing that Henry Firearms maintains.

The receivers are listed as solid Brass. The fancy engraved center-fires...44 mag, 45 LC, and 38/357 mag run about $2000...so it will probably stay a dream for me. The Plain brass looks great too and sells for a lot less.
They make a fancy receiver for the 'Golden Boy' 22/22mag/17 also, You buy a plain version at your dealer then order the $150 personalized receiver from the factory. That would be cheaper, but I want a Big Boy more than a 22.
