Chambered in both .30-30 and .360 Buckhammer, this carbine delivers reliable performance for Florida shooters who demand versatility from their firearm.

Overview

Henry Repeating Arms has a long-standing reputation for producing durable, accurate lever-action rifles. The Henry H9 Protector Carbine continues that tradition with a compact 9-round capacity and a smooth, side-gate loading system. The .30-30 Winchester variant is a time-tested caliber for deer and hog hunting across Florida’s diverse terrain, while the .360 Buckhammer option provides superior energy retention at typical hunting ranges. Both calibers are well-suited for the dense brush and open fields common in the state. The carbine’s 16.5-inch barrel keeps the overall length manageable for vehicle transport or maneuverability in thick cover.

Features & Specs

Every component of the Henry H9 Protector Carbine is selected for function and longevity. The rifle features a polished stainless steel receiver and a blued steel barrel, both resistant to Florida’s humid conditions. The stock is crafted from straight-grain American walnut with a satin finish, providing a secure grip in wet weather. The side gate allows for quick reloading without removing the magazine tube, a critical advantage when tracking game.
