Looking for post Henry reblock photos. Specifcially Penman.

Post by TenuredProfessor »

So I'm thinking my Henry is in need of a reblock after a few good years of hard wear, and will be sending it off to John's shop. When I look at it next to my Penman Raiders, it looks tapered and not full enough in the crown. I'm hoping a reblock on John's Raiders block will bring it closer to what I see in my Penman. The Henry has been rained on numerous times, but I've also added water repellant fairly often when needed. My concerns are losing brim width, since it just seems like there's considerably more 'fullness' to the Penman in the crown. I'm sure John himself could address this best, but I couldn't find any pictures of Henry reblocks on John's Raiders block in my searches ](*,) :-k Thanks for any help, guys :TOH:
