Went to the range this morning guy next to me was shooting Henry's 9mm semi auto carbine I didn't know Henry came out with this but it was a blast to shoot I may have to acquire one in the near future. Reminds me a little of the old Marlin camp

I heard about this in an ad on the Hannity show. Sounds pretty interesting.
According to their website they just introduced it on the 14th msrp just under 1K at $928-959 depending upon mags.
I have looked at the Ruger PC9 but I'm more of a traditionalist the Henry is more my style the one this guy had had real nice wood stock and forend
I bought the Ruger takedown carbine in 9mm and its a hoot. Henry could only be better.
I also have the Ruger PC 9mm carbine. I added a Magpul Stock to it and like it even more. I gave $450 for mine and still see them for sale under $600.
Thanks. A common complaint on the Ruger is it's heavy for what it is. I feel the Magpul stock makes the Ruger feel more handy. Not necessarily lighter though. The magpul but plate is smooth which I find helps the rifle shoulder more easily than the sticky rubber but plate that catches your clothing. I also like how it holds the barrel when broken down.
The Henry looks better to me but not $500+ better. I hear you have to pay additional $ to get a Glock magazine adapter for the Henry. That comes standard with the Ruger.
Have Win 94 Trapper (USRAC 1994) in .45 Colt, it too is a hoot, and I hunt with it.
Holy Crap, Drobs! That rifle looks (middle picture) like it has the shoulder thingy that goes up!
Cool gun there @drobs
That shoulder thingy goes up and down automatically and the whole thing fits in a pocket
I'll keep my .30 carbine. Lighter, shorter with a high cap mag. And probably higher resale value.
I contemplate 30 Carbines from time to time. I just don't want another caliber and magazine to stock. 30 Carbine ammo aint cheap like 9mm.
I have had the carbine since 1966. I stocked up on components years ago before the price hike.
