Wow, that’s awesome. I’ll be buying one someday, but hard to do that right now when it’s likely that semi autos will be the ones cracked down on in coming months.
They sent out an email today. All tube loading models except the .22s have been discontinued and updated to have side loading gates. They're also rolling out a case hardened finish for some models.
Good point. They want to set us back 150 years.
I'm game to yeet home invaders with a 45LC.
Reminds me of this copypasta:
Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion.He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up, Just as the founding fathers intended
Interesting. I actually like the tube loader. My Marlin .45-70 tears my thumb up when I load that last round through the side gate. Hopefully, Henry will make that a smoother proposition.

That's what I liked about them when the NRA did a review of the rifle, being able to unload without working the lever, that's what i dislike about my 336...the only thing....The new loading gate rifles also retain the traditional Henry loading system. You can pull the tube out the same way and the same cutout is in the bottom to drop rounds in. Same parts, they've just added a loading gate to the reciever.
