Title: owner's manual?
Post by: chaindrive on March 28, 2017, 02:10:42 PM
was one included with the purchase of your new Uberti 1860 Henry?

all I got with mine was a one sheet fold out with loading instructions on one side and an exploded view of the rifle on the other.

nothing in the way of cleaning, maintenance, trouble shooting, sighting in etc.

is there anyway of getting this info either in print or online?

thanks.

I got mine last week.

apparently nothings changed.

the uberti website isn't exactly a wealth  of information either.

however they do provide contact and returns info.

I guess we're on our own...

Ah yes.  The Ubiquitous Owner's Manual for the 1860 Henry.  Didn't get yours??  That's 'cause there isn't one.  Not even something that looks like one.  There use to be little booklet of included.  But the little booklet was just a little catalogue of other guns in the product line.

Just in case your curious, there is also no Wwners Manual included with any other Uberti built Rifle either.  None.  Nada.  Zip.  Zilch.  ZERO.

PS:  Almost forgot.  Many .. Many .. Many years ago, there was a pretty good tutorial in an issue of "Shoot" magazine   ::)

There is an instruction manual with each gun, yep.  That's what it is.  It says so, right on top: "Instruction Manual"  :D

And nope, they don't tell you a whole lot.  But in the case of the Henry "manual" you have to give them credit as they did actually put instructions on loading it, in particular to avoid dropping rounds down the magazine tube.

Here is a list of downloadable "manuals":
