I kinda want one, but my wife says I'll shoot my eye out.

uh-oh.  How much are they?

That’s different. Not sure how I feel about it..

the wood is nice...

That thing is fugly.

Looks like a prop from “Planet of the Apes”....

I kind of want one. It is simultaneously completely stupid and awesome. 

And a Saddle Ring just in case you're out on the range with your horse..........

I feel like this is a much better compromise:

plus a lot more pride of ownership AND not fugly.

This makes no sense. What's the point of keeping the buffer tube?

I see no sense in this.

If I wanted a magazine fed lever action that shoots 223 I'd get a Browning lever action.

Recoil impulse is straight back to the shoulder through the receiver extension.

Without that, recoil would pivot at the wrist  as the grip and stock would be below the bore, causing the barrel to tip up under recoil.

Given that these Henry mags are NOT AR15 compatible, I wonder how long it will take for a third party mag manufacturer to introduce a 10 or 20 or 30 rounder to the market.
