Changing receiver on Henry H010

Hi All,

I just picked up the Henry H010. It's a nice gun. It has all the features I want in a lever action with the exception of the brass look.

Has anyone ever attempted to switch out the black receiver for a brass receiver?

Henry won't sell me the piece, but I was contemplating taking out the receiver and sending it to a casting place, casting it with brass, and inserting it back in.

That might be a little crazy... not sure. :)

The OP has an H010 45-70 which has a blued steel receiver, no stripping the black paint here and leaving it silver.

gfields, I would keep that H010 and pick up a Big Boy brass to keep it company.
love my Big Boy .357mag Carbine.
