Can this be equipped with a circular rear sight, like the XS Peep Sight. Is the Ghost Ring the same thing?

yes it can be equipped with the XS sight system as it is drilled and tapped see 7th paragraph "Though the rifle is drilled and tapped for scope bases, my favorite feature is the iron sights from XS Sight Systems. (I own several lever guns, and all wear XS sights.) The rear sight is a large ghost-ring aperture with a .220-inch opening that is fully adjustable for windage and elevation.

I've never shoot that heavy of a round through a rifle

its really not that bad to its about the same as a 12 ga shotgun with 1 1/4 oz loads 7 lb rifle recoil is 36 foot pounds the 12 ga is around 33 foot pounds recoil

What kind of external safety does this rifle have?

Jason, there are 3 safeties - "Transfer Bar", "Lever Position" and Manual hammer drop by holding the hammer with your thumb, pulling the trigger and slowly lowering the hammer (which decocks the trigger mechanism),

lever position prevent firing unless lever is closed. transfer bar requires trigger to be pulled and the exposed hammer can be lowered to uncock the gun

Jason - These have a firing pin transfer bar to prevent firing if dropped. Also, the Hammer serves as a safety. One can 'thumb it down' slowly, after loading a shell in the chamber, then thumb it back when ready to fire. And if the lever isn't fully 'closed' the gun wil not fire.

The Henry only has a firing pin transfer bar. They also require the lever to be fully closed to fire.

Is the rear sight a ghost ring or a buckhorn?

Brad: From Henry's web site: "The model H010 will be factory issued with a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with a brass beaded front sight. Because the receiver is drilled and tapped, scope mounting is an easy option." So there you go .. comes with a buckhorn style rear sight.

Brad, yes Sir. The rear sight is a Fully adjustable Semi-Buckhorn rear sight with a Blade Front Sight.

Brad, rear sight is a Fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight.

I drive OTR and will be in Lexington, KY later this week. I live in Ohio and wanted to know if I stop by can I purchase the Henry H010? Thanks

Tom, yes you can. You can purchase long guns across state line legally. Just not handguns Sir.

Can a sling be mounted to this rifle?

Yes it can. This rifle already has "Swivel Studs" for sling mounting.

Yes it can Antonio. This rifle already has "Swivel Studs" for sling mounting already.

I would like to purchase two of this rifle. Can an additional discount be added for the double purchase and will sales tax also be added? I am in Arkansas.
