Reference your “Would like to ad one of these [Henry survival 22 rifle] too (though I always carry a Kimber on my hip)”, I was highly interested in one myself, a few years ago.
That is, until the salesman tried to unjam the pieces from the previous demonstration. Couldn’t get the doggone thing out of the stock.
I dunno, just seemed to me a little too flimsy to rely on *while experiencing my worst moment ever.* YMMV
Maybe one of KelTec’s folding handgun cartridge PS2000 carbines matched to one’s pistol’s magazines, if a compact rifle must be had. Having never held one, I can’t say as to flimsiness.
(Were I to drop the current car carry to a .22LR/MWR, I might revisit the notion of a matching rifle or one that at least shares its ammo.)
I should have qualified my statement. I have a Henry Survival rifle and love it, but was thinking of buying a second one specifically for the car.
It is a great gun and is highly recommended.
