They are still fairly reasonable. I almost bought one used, myself, for a pretty low price, but did not like the plastic front barrel band. (I think they have changed that.) The design is not new, being the old Erma from around 1970. If you want a lever, the Marlin 39A is, hands down, the best around. Of course, it will be a couple of hundred more than the Henry but, spread over the time you own and enjoy it, that works out to not much more per year. Plus it will still be going strong fifty years from now, a witnessed by how many are still doing yeoman service.
