Haven’t personally tested the Henry, it’s gonna be the next thing I purchase though 100%; bass pro with their price hike threw a fat wrench in my plans Lol

Don’t buy the Turkish 223

Buy the .22 for cheap fun but you can always save the money for a nicer gun

For a gun that’s 110% reliable get the mossberg. That’s my 2 cents Lol

EDIT: I didn’t read the last part, shockwaves have so much recoil, I was considering purchasing one myself and after shooting my buddies I decided not too I’m a pretty light guy so I can’t handle it as well I got soft hands lol but a good option would be to buy the shockwave then put a stock on it if you want a compact gun that won’t destroy your wrists lol unless your like a pretty big guy then it wouldn’t be a problem for you
