the papoose isnt really the same as a henry, the barrel comes off, big deal, it doesnt store in its stock, it has to go into a bag.IMHO, the Marlin papoose is far superior to the Henry. I have 4 Papoose rifles now. They shoot any .22lr ammo reliably, breakdown as small as the Henry, and are much better built. The fact that the Henry is NOT built strong enough to fire high velocity ammo should tell you something. Plus, parts are cheap and easy to find for a Marlin (basically a model 70 with a removable barrel). The stock is also more natural feeling than the "fat" stock of the Henry. You can also get high capacity magazines for the marlin. Last point, my papoose will shoot better at 50 yards than any Henry will at 25.

opinions are like @$$%0($, everyone has one, and they all stink.I hate these Henry "survival" rifles. I GAVE away the one I had. Complete POS. A barrel shrouded in plastic? NO. THANKS.
Marlin papoose FAR outweighs the Henry in quality and construction. WHO CARES if the barrel goes into the stock? The barrel comes off and it makes for a compact package. I can put it together far faster than the Henry and it will last FAR LONGER. The papoose was built to last a lifetime. The Henry was built to last for the duration of an emergency.
your papoose is junk.:thumb:I hate these Henry "survival" rifles. I GAVE away the one I had. Complete POS. A barrel shrouded in plastic? NO. THANKS.
