Henry Arms P*O*S
I bought a Henry Arms explorer/ AR7 type of rifle. My first gun that is a total piece of crap. It absolutely will not feed a shell into the chamber from the magazine PERIOD. I sent it back to the factory and got it back today. Even though I told them to test fire it before returning it, all they did was replace the mags with a new style that have an exterior spring. Even they were worn out and used. Same Sh**, different day! Worst hundred and fifty bucks I've ever spent on a gun.
Has anybody else had this experience??
....I never met a gun I didn't like!

Sorry to say yes. The 7rd mags that I have are fair 5-6 rds most times without jamming. The 10 rd is junk and the 15 rd is putrid to say the least. Wish I give you some good news but I would get struck with lightning.[V] 0 -
Have to agree with the other poster! Demand your money back and get a Survival gun over under in 410/22 Hornet! You'll thank yourself!!

My buddy ordered me one of the cheaper copies and it was a POS as well. It jammed all the time and was the most inaccurate .22 I have ever seen. I honestly could not hit a 9" pie plate at 25 yds and scoping the gun is not a option because the barrel goes in the stock. I was very disappointed in the gun and didn't get it. He sent it back, I beleive. 0 -
Don't throw it away yet. I have the charter arms AR7 and it is fantastic....After I read this article.

Had a CA -AR7 many years back and it was great, never jammed and was damm accurate... think I paid $75 brand new... a great survival tool as you could want ,the stock got a crack & I called Charterarms in Conn they sent me a brand new stock a week later, also had a 22 Pathfinder also a fine 22 ....shame they went out of buisness... 0 -
I inherited a charter arms survival rifle. i have never had a problem with it. the ten and thirty round clips work fine for my rifle. I shoot remington golden bullets out of it and it rarely jams. can usually hit a pop can at 25 yards with it. i think it is one of the slowest cycling semi-autos i have ever shot. 0 -
That was my first gun. I could not fire more than 2 shots without it jamming up. Sent it back to the factory and got it back 5 months later. Same problem. The gun store paid me back my money in full. PIECE OF CRAP GUN!!!!!! 0 -
my CA AR7 did not feed well when I got it: the magazine rode too low in the well. I silver-soldered a small extensio onto the top of the magazine catch so it forced the mag higher, and now the feed is much more reliable Not 100%, but way better than before. I don't have the time to really sort this rifle out, but I think that it can be done.
Another project for my retirement years.0 -
