Henry Repeating Arms is undoubtedly one of the premier lever-action rifle manufacturers in the firearm industry today.

For this year, they have a new Long Ranger Express chambered for .223 Rem/5.56mm NATO as well as a Brass receiver Axe in .410 Gauge, too. These both should become available very soon and we’ll take a look at what they are all about.
