Henry Protector Carbine

Henry Repeating Arms has launched two new product families: Protector Carbines are compact and suppressor-ready for everyday utility and peace of mind, while Provider Rifles are dedicated hunting rifles focused on putting meat in the freezer, season after season.

“The lever action is one of the most versatile rifle platforms ever made, but that doesn’t mean they’re always one-size-fits-all,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “The new Protector Carbines and Provider Rifles offer new configurations with clear purpose to suit the real-world needs of American rifle owners.”

Provider Rifles: Built for the Woodsman

The Provider Rifles are designed for hunters who value the ergonomics of a pistol-grip stock and maximum capacity over the ability to mount a suppressor. Each features a 20-inch, non-threaded, blue-steel barrel paired with a longer tubular magazine capable of holding up to six rounds in rifle calibers and 10 rounds in pistol calibers.

Provider Rifle calibers include

  • H9 Provider Rifle in .30-30 Win., .360 Buckhammer, .38-55 Win., and .35 Rem.
  • H10 Provider Rifle in .45-70 Gov’t.
  • H12 Provider Rifle in .357 Magnum/.38 Spl. and .44 Magnum/.44 Spl.

All Provider Rifles carry an MSRP of $1,135.

Protector Carbines: Built to Be Ready

Protector Carbines are lighter, more compact, and built to live unobtrusively close at hand. With shorter 16.5-inch barrels and threaded muzzles for use with a suppressor, these carbines emphasize maneuverability, comfort and everyday capability.

Protector Carbine calibers include:

  • H9 Protector Carbine in .30-30 Win. and .360 Buckhammer
  • H10 Protector Carbine in .45-70 Gov’t
  • H12 Protector Carbine in .357 Magnum/.38 Spl. and .44 Magnum/.44 Spl.

All Protector Carbines carry an MSRP of $1,200.

Both Protectors and Providers feature a matte blued steel receiver finish, checkered genuine American walnut pistol-grip stocks, ventilated, pre-installed sling swivel studs, fully adjustable sights, and receivers drilled and tapped for optics mounting.

The new Protector Carbines and Provider Rifles are shipping now and available for sale through an authorized Henry dealer. Full product specifications are available at henryusa.com.
