Henry Repeating Arms recovery effort

I got the following email from Henry Repeating Arms and thought I would share it:

HENRY

Dear Valued Henry Customers,

ant-pleased

We are pleased to report that we are well on our way to a full recovery from the significant damage sustained from Hurricane Sandy. More than 100 pieces of manufacturing machinery that were damaged by salt water are on track to be repaired or replaced by December 1st. We expect to be fully operational by the beginning of December and have already begun shipping Henry rifles to our distributors.

cnc-machineAnthony Imperato, President of the company states, "This is a painstaking process. We've had to replace motors, circuit boards, pumps, coolant tanks, and more. Some of our most expensive sophisticated machinery was damaged beyond repair and had to be replaced outright. We are getting through this with the help of some very talented people including our own staff and we're on track to emerge stronger with increased manufacturing capacity".


Sincerely,
Anthony Imperato
President
Henry Repeating Arms

Henry Repeating ArmsHenry Repeating Arms is one of the country's leading rifle manufacturers. Their legendary name dates back to 1860 when Benjamin Tyler Henry invented and patented the first practical repeating rifle during the Civil War. It became known as the "gun you could load on Sunday and shoot all week long." Henry rifles went on to play a significant role in the frontier days of the American West and soon became one of the most legendary, respected and sought after rifles in the history of firearms. The company's primary manufacturing facility is in Bayonne, New Jersey and they have a second facility in Rice Lake, Wisconsin.
