Thanks for the info guys! I went to Basspro after work last night, and they showed me a Henry in 44 mag. It was a nice peice but had no provisions for mounting any type of scope. The open sights on it were ok, but something just didn't feel right with those sights.

I really appreciate all you guys sharing your knowledge with me!

Go with the 1894 Marlin then, it is already tapped and drilled for a top mount scope and the open sights on it are good enough to get you by out to about 70 yards, maybe farther if your eyes are good enough. They also sell aftermarket peep sights for it that mount right to the top, or you can get a set that mount to the side.
