Henry Protector Carbine 44 Mag 16.5" 7rd Lever Action Rifle

The Henry Protector Carbine is a lever action rifle chambered in .44 Magnum that also accepts .44 Special loads. The 16.5-inch barrel and synthetic stock make it a compact, weather-resistant carbine suited for home defense, truck gun duty, or brush hunting. The Protector Carbine features Henry's side loading gate, allowing cartridges to be loaded through the receiver without removing the inner magazine tube. This is a significant practical improvement for field reloading and topping off the 7-round tubular magazine during use. A full-length Picatinny rail along the top of the receiver provides a solid mounting platform for red dot sights, scopes, or other optics. The synthetic stock is durable and impervious to moisture, making the Protector well-suited for hard use in adverse conditions. The .44 Magnum chambering provides substantial terminal performance at lever action ranges, and the ability to shoot .44 Special gives shooters a milder option for range practice and reduced-recoil applications.
