    Great advice. I picked up the butt stock pouch and ripped out a couple seams. Using some trimmable velcro I was able to set up the 'end strap' for the pouch so I could attach one end where it was intended (under the pouch) and the other attaches on the outside so I can just pop that strap and open the butt cap. I also rigged a sling using a standard two-point strap to a ring on a single strap around the stock between the pouch and the receiver screw.

    You can also store about an additional 50+ rounds inside the storage area. The orange “grid” portion can each hold two rounds. So in essence, with that butt pouch, you can hold 260 rounds in it. I use 22 interceptor rounds or the 22 sniper rounds with mine. I like that set up. Im still considering placing a detachable vortex scope on it.

    It is actually water proof. It floats on water. It weighs 2 lbs. I actually got the all steel barrel, a vortex scope and a single point sling. Mark the spot for the scope and it can be popped off and put on. Get a nice protective bag for the scope and strap it on the stock. This can be a day to day gun with the steel barrel.

The A7 is a blast . I don't range shoot much but i smile when i see it sitting there. I give my 10/22 the nod for SHTF, only because I've 6 beautiful 25 round magazines. (Only buy ruger) there's a new plastic ruger magazine loader, 25 rounds, 5 seconds. Yeah.

  • @michaelhrivnak1719
    @michaelhrivnak1719 4 месяца назад +1

    Not an everyday gun? A lot of people put a lot of rounds thru their AR7! Maybe the key is leaving the gun assembled most of the time. And using standard velocity ammo for plinking. Saving the high velocity stuff strictly for hunting, or "emergency use". Although standard velocity works pretty good for most hunting situations, too! Test all ammo for accuracy and function. I learned the hard way about that!

      @robertkelley3437 4 месяца назад

      I had some problems with jamming using standard velocity ammo. Discovered a lot of people hold the clip while shooting. I stop doing this and a lot of the jams vanished. The other two problem I have had deals with a dirty clip, a touch brush and a drop of oil helps. Also make sure all of the round is seated to the rear of the clip before loading the next round. As with the Mosien Nogant stripper clips if the stripper clip is loaded wrong the gun will jam. this is a problem with rimmed ammo and stripper clips. watch a video on loading a Mosin Nugent.

    I have one of those Henry AR-7's. Always wanted one as a kid when they were introduced by Armalite, and finally got one in old age. One big difference in the Henry version is the addition of a 3/8ths scope/sight rail which is nice. One change I despise is the hunter's orange plastic front sight which makes the thing look like cheap, and a toy. Orange parts have long been used on air pistols to distinguish them from real handguns. A metal blade with an orange dot would have been fine, but an orange plastic sight? In my parts box I'm certain I have a front sight which will fit or be made to fit the Henry's front dovetail.

      Same with me. I wanted one since I first saw it in a store 30 years ago, thought was very cool. They were only 99.00 back then. Decided to add one to my firearms now. I agree the picatinney rail is a nice touch if you wanted an optic to occassionally use. But the only disappointment is all the orange! An orange front bead is fine but making it so big it sticks out like a sore thumb and completely blocks your target view at any thing but close ranges is bad planning. Also having the entire interior of the buttstock where everything is stored bright orange makes it very cheap looking and unnecessary. Basic black wouldve been fine while keeping the gun looking more classic, tactical and like a real gun! You're right, all the orange makes it look like a toy and cheapens what is otherwise a great rifle. In an attempt to make changes and improvements , some companies always have to ruin Something!

    According to Armalite history, a mismanaged company all the way. They sold the rights to Colt for a quick profit and Stoner went with it. Stoner it was said designed it for the consumer market with the goal of attracting the military market. I think this is one of the best designs for a back pack firearm as it was originally designed for. Just to show his wisdom and vision.

  • @hoosierlogger
    @hoosierlogger 4 года назад

    I took a dremel and cut the fins out of the orange plastic under the butt cap. I can fit about 60 rounds in there as well. I don’t store my mags loaded so there is a possibility to hold more. Granted the ammo will likley fall out when you take the cap off to assemble the weapon, but you will need the ammo any way.

    Nice video. Always kind of wanted one, thought the concept was interesting and wanted a compact 22LR back pack/truck gun. Just picked one up a couple of weeks ago because it was on sale for $209. Cleaned it and took it to the range last weekend. 200 rounds and it functioned as well or better than my 10/22. I was pleasantly surprised that it actually seemed to like the American Eagle and Remington round nose lead ammo better than CCI Velocitor HPs. With the CCI, 4 failures to feed and one magazine didn't like 8 rounds (7 were OK). 1 failure to extract with the the American Eagle and no problems with the Remington. Shot the CCI first, so it may have been break-in issues. Trigger is a bit stiff, but I imagine it will get better with use. Accuracy wasn't too bad, about 1 to 1 1/2" groups at 25 yards once I got used to the trigger. Again, the round nose lead ammo seemed more accurate. Thumbs up so far!

    16 rounds in the 2 clips that come with it. I was able to put 30 rounds in the ribbing of the stock. There is a video where the person put 48 rounds in the ribbing. I tied 48 but a lot of the rounds were loose and fell out. I order 3 additional clips from Henry. 1 in the stock 2 in a 2 clip mag belt pack I got at Walmart for $3.00. Fastened the clip pack to the stock with Elastic from a pair of suspenders. put a stock pack on the stock which will hold 200 rounds of 22lr. I Can hold 264 to 312 rounds. This will make the gun much heavier and if you drop it in water may not float and the ammo on the outside of the stock will be ruined. I used the 50 round packs which come in the hard plastic container, this give some protection from water and dirt. Thanks for the idea on the carry strap, the rest of the old pair of suspenders.

    2) i'm very interested in replacing the rear sight with a classic old iron sight...the circle is just not great for me and would prefer a basic old block cut out iron sight that doesn't stop it from being packaged up like usual.
    3) to make it more buoyant has anyone considered packaging Styrofoam inside spaces to help with this?
    TY AHEAD OF TIME. GREAT VIDEO.

    • @FullHouseOutfitters
      @FullHouseOutfitters  11 лет назад +6

      While you certainly could, depending on your volume of shooting, popular fixed stock rifles have a greater aftermarket for accessories. The M&P1522 and the Ruger 1022, for example, have more complimentary parts available for them than almost any other guns. Higher cap mags, optics, better slings and so forth. Try the Henry and maybe you'll find it's a perfect everyday 22 and the fact that it breaks down so compactly will just be a bonus.

    Has any one besides me noticed that the AR-7 is designed for a Lefty? I got a new one recently after the one I had in the 80's disappeared after a move. I put the scope on it and Whoa!-had to almost tilt it 15 degrees to the left to get a line on the scope. Apparently, the barrel, in storage inside the stock, extends all the way to the end of the handgrip, and they chose to put it to the left of centerline (since the receiver bolt has to go through there somewhere) which throws the receiver to the right of center. If you're a lefty, it's real handy.

    I've always liked the AR7 concept but have always found them very prone to feeding problems. Some have said it's the magazine that causes these issues. I wonder if a more recent made magazine would solve this or is there any design difference in the newer guns that would make them run better?

    • @ronaldcolman6211
      @ronaldcolman6211 10 лет назад +2

      The Henry's don't seem to have those issues. Mine feeds fine and cycles perfectly even with standard velocity, non copper washed ammo. Henry made the receiver hold the mags a bit tighter and added a spring that sits over the top round to keep them from jumping up. Mine has over 500 rnds through it and I have not had a single failure to feed or failure to fire. I did polish the bolt and inside the receiver with 660 grit wet/dry sandpaper at one point, but only as a preventive measure, because Henry made some over spray with the coating at the factory and I didn't like it's semi rough finish near moving parts. Overall it outperformed my 10/22 which is picky about cheap ammo and had a few failures to fire, due to light strikes because cheap ammo has varying rim thickness. (CCI standard velocity .22lr waxed lead 40 gr target). Happy shooting!

      If your rifle isn't cycling it could be any number of things. Give the gun a good cleaning, try different magazines, and yes, different ammo too. Find what works and, by extension, you'll figure out what the problem is. Best of luck.

    • @FullHouseOutfitters

    Must have-why? I remember ordering a Charter Arms Tactical AR-7 19 years ago and leaving the gun and my $75.00 deposit with the FFL and buying a 10/22 instead. I distinctly remember all of the easily lost parts that fall out after one removes the receiver side plate-this gun was not designed to be field stripped! I also remember the front sight that had neither elevation nor deflection adjustment and the rear sight not having both! Then again, I have not been impressed by any of Eugene Stoners designs and own a pretty varied collection of European C&R fire arms.

    • @FullHouseOutfitters
      @FullHouseOutfitters  10 лет назад +1

      Qualitywise, the new Henrys are worlds away from the Charter Arms of 19 years ago. That said, these days I'd probably still lean toward the 1022 takedown over the AR7 unless I was ultralight backpacking.

Several of my guns are over 100 years old. After serving 5 years in the USN, and discovering how varied in practicality the US designs are, I went to the dark side when I got out.

    Constructive critism concerning your video...why did you wear a black t-shirt ? It was a black background you were showing off a black rifle on! Also, from the very beginning, I did not like the poor lighting set up you have. How about a 3rd light in the middle of your area, so I can see better! I did like your tips and suggestions, but instead of a sleeve pouch and sling, I purchased a small reverse backpack. Plenty of room for ammo, extra clips, small binocs, firestart kit, gloves, etc. and it keeps the rifle from being unwieldy when pushing through brush, etc.
    Finally, if you can find them, you should carry 20 or so tracer .22 rounds with you, to consider this a true survival gun...if you want to be found, using those at night would attract attention as well as fire or flare!

    An excellent video, very well done. However, I strongly disagree with your opinion of this weapon. It's construction and materials confine this weapon to only target practice. It is completely unreliable. Not at all suited for survival food procurement in even the most favorable conditions. Far superior options would be: Ruger 10/22TD, Marlin papoose, Savage 24 or 42, or the well established cream of the crop, the Springfield (CZ) M6 Scout.

      The more I research, the better the Henry made ones come out. I have finally had the displeasure of shooting a Charter Arms version and was right on board with the bad mouthing they receive, but I'm telling you the Henry ones are in a whole different league, yes they are built cheaply, but that's why they can be bought cheaply. The tolerances are a ton better on the Henry made guns and I have personally put over a thousand rounds downrange with mine with no failures, of course I clean it after every outing, but that goes without saying. Maybe I got lucky and landed a good one, or maybe they are built good enough.

      This is made from an aluminum/zinc alloy, only the stock is "plastic". How many Law Enforcement officers protect themselves with plastic (polymer) guns every day, think Glock, S&W Sigma,etc.. Also, the guns that won both world wars were the ones that were cheap to manufacture like the Sten, the M3 Grease gun., and the PPSH. The Israeli Defense Agency even issued a version of this gun to their heli pilots for self defense, in the event of a crash. Do you think they would issue a gun if it was junk? Do yourself a favor and do some research before you make yourself look like a fool.

      I didn't bash scoping a .22 - just this particular .22. A quality fixed 4x on a .22 is quite useful. And slings aren't related to weight. They ensure that your rifle stays with you and allow you to use your hands for other things while keeping your rifle at the ready. In fact, I have slings on all my pistols too. You know, just in case.

    Dear God, please stop the ridiculous parade of "Survival Experts" who think this gun is a survival rifle. This is a gimmick gun. Every and I mean E-V-E-R-Y videos shows how the rifle is stored in its stock and all make mention of its ability to Float if dropped in water.
    Now lets talk about the really important factors - It is cheaply made, subject to damage and or lost parts relatively easily, it has th horrible sights and its most appealing quality would never come into play in a survival situation. No useful firearm is disassembled in survival situation. If you are dropping your rifle in water that you need it to float so you can recover it, you are probably not going to survive because you dont know how to take care of your equipment. This isnt a must have, this is a gimmick rifle that should never be relied upon in a survival situation. If you are serious enough about survival that you take a rifle with you, you are not packing this rifle.

    • @williamwidener4282
      @williamwidener4282 6 лет назад +1

      FlyRiverFly I agree and disagree with you. As for survival it depends on what you are setting your sights on. Small game for example rabbit squirrel or ground hog ( hey if you're hungry you'll figure it out). Do I see this as a primary not in the slightest as I have noticed my charter arms is prone to jamming after moderate abuse and let's be honest if you're in a survival situation you're not going to clean your rifle after every event be it from exhaustion or simply don't carry items for that in sfth situation. I think this rifle is ideal as a trainer for your youngster, defense from wild dogs in a shoot to kill situation ( I am animal friendly but at the end of the day I'm on top of the food chain for a reason), and if you find yourself in a situation where you can't ecscape but have time to assemble to give you a fighting chance. This is not a battle rifle or anything of the sort but for what it is it is a fairly accurate for an open sight rifle that can teach and offer some defense and help keep you fed plus saves ammo on your primary. They are also kinda fun to shoot too
