Hey guys, I wonder if any of you have JJ Henry replicas/originals and could post pics of them and the builder that did them?

I only know of one builder for a J.J. Henry, Brett Smith in Wyoming. I will be glad to send you his email in a PM if you will contact me.

I had a JJ Henry in my collection. I sold it in a gun auction several years ago in Eastern Pennsylvania. If some one can tell me how to post a photo on the forum, I'll post a pic of the lock and stock for you...

OK, I'll ask the question branding me a flatlander

What is a JJ Henry rifle and what is so special about one?

JJ Henry was a major supplier to the fur trade of the 1826 onwards period. They made three basic models of rifles for the trade"
The Lancaster or American model
The Old English Model
The New English or Scroll Guard model post 1834

With a fair bit of overlap between the three patterns.
