Nevada Smith comes to mind but I don't remember Henrys... But he was a Gun dealer with a wagon load.

I'll dig a little deeper

I remember that at the end of the movie they defend a Fort against indians.I saw the movie in the '70s.

The Halls replica carbine was made by a guy(a reenactor) in Colo.if I remember right,I saw one and it was very pricey,some of the guys in my reenactment group at the time wanted to get them because we were doing a-lot of movie work at the time and there was a Mexican war movie in the works, this all happened in the mid 1980's and by the mid too early 90's  the Hall replica had vanished due too the fact that making 1Z's cost too much money.This is how I remember the events.Mickey.

"Last Stand at Saber River" are you guys sure this was the first movie to use a henry rifle? The allmovie shows the year 1997 for "Last Stand at Saber River". What was the first year pf production for the Uberti Henry rifle? Mickey.

Reenactors were using the Henry rifle at events in the early 1980's so....I wonder if they weren't being used as early as that in the movies? Any help here with this question? I don't know for sure if one was one in the TV series "The Blue&the Grey"? I know they used a Spencer replica.

Major, you're thinking of "Ft Dobbs" with Clint Walker & Brian Keith was the guy with the crates of "Hollywood Henrys" aka Model 92 Win. Probably the first movie to feature an Uberti Henry was "Sacred Ground" in 1983.

People, this thread was beat to death last year. Do a search.  ;)

Both Spencers used in The Blue & the Grey, one by Gregory Peck the other by Stacy Ketch were mine,
I still have both.
And no, I don't think anyone said The Henry in Last Stand at saber River was the first... ???

I carried one in the Blue and the Grey  & again in North & South II .
 I carried a Halls Carbine with the North improvement in North & South I

Just saw'Major Dundee '(The Extended Version) (1965)with Charlton Heston, Richard Harris and James Coburn.
Great movie.
We have a classic cavalry action in which the European and American styles of cavalry fighting are shown for this period. Dundee's boys have Henry repeating rifles which gives them a massive firepower advantage over the French Lancers.Richard Harris looks great and brings a rebel energy to the movie.

I saw one very early episode in which Little Joe was shooting what I am pretty sure was a real Henry and Hoss had a big ol Sharps rifle.

Well, howdy!

I just watched a Gunsmoke that guest starred Forrest Tucker as Sgt. Holley.  He played the same character in at LEAST 2 episodes.  Any-hoo, he was totin' around and talkin' 'bout his S&W Model 3 pistol and facing Miss Kitty - who had HIS rifle - and saying that the rifle was a Henry and both were in 44 Caliber and BOTH would "blow the hump off a buffalo at a hundred yards."   ::)  They must have both been chambered in 44 Magnum.  ???  :P  ::)  ;D  Or not.  Tee-Hee-Heee!

It WAS an S&W in his hand.  However, the "Henry" was an 1866 with the front wood removed.  A "Hollyweird Henry"   ;D

I'll say this;  I've seen some cool old guns on that show over the years - not EVERYTHING was a Colt Mod. P or an 1892 Winchester, as MANY movies are/were.

Take a look.


At 2:30, is that a real Henry that Hoss has? I cannot see a loading gate at the right side of the rifle.

I think there was at least ONE real Henry of all shown.

Hoss is holding a REAL HENRY and Ben has a HOLLYWOOD HENRY!!  Thanks for the clip.  Also, in beginning, Adam has what looks like a Richards transition model 1860 Army.
