When it comes to firearms, there are few that could truly be considered a piece of Americana quite like a lever action rifle. While most people may envision blued steel and walnut stocks, Henry takes a great deal of pride in keeping up with the demands of modern hunters while not losing sight of its long heritage. The Lever Action H9 Explorer Model line borrows that Americana spirit from one of the most legendary hunting platforms of all time and lovingly poured it into a feature-packed rifle for today's whitetail woodsman. The solid rubber recoil pad ensures that the buttstock won't slip and slide around to keep shots consistent. The receiver is drilled and tapped to accept a variety of optics for those who prefer some magnification. For those who wish to run a suppressor or other muzzle device, the barrel is finished with 5/8x24 threading and a removable thread protector.
