    I visited a casting supplier and had the opportunity to see a couple things of general interest to folks here.
    While there are many more firearm parts made in this facility, here are a couple that were in production at the time:

    NAA mini-revolver frame
    ry%3D400

    Similarly from the NAA website in 22WMR instead of the 22LR.

    Basket of frames ready for NDT
    ry%3D400


    Henry original deluxe receivers. Some still needing gate grind and blast, and others complete for NDT.
    ry%3D400

    Packed for ship-out
    ry%3D400

    The business makes the magazine followers, butt plates and action blocks too. I saw some steel receivers too.

    From the Henry website.

    I love working with these guys and get to see some pretty cool hardware when I visit. I got to see the Henry parts move from wax pattern injection through shelling, autoclave, burn out, cut off, etc. This makes the rest of the morning in conference rooms and offices much more tolerable.
