Built for a tough world Henry uses a satin hard chrome plating that’s permanently bonded to the steel underneath that doesn’t flake chip peel and has a corrosion resistance that actually exceeds some stainless steel. Not only does this increase surface hardness but it also reduces friction on moving parts to take our already smooth action to the next level. Details are important so even the screws are stainless.
While Henry remains partial to their genuine American walnut stocks they've opted for a stained hardwood with a carefully engineered coating that is formulated to stand up to wear tear scratches moisture temperature variations and the angst of the various “character marks” that an everyday outdoor tool will inevitably pick up during its lifetime. This is the finish you want for a rifle that might be “rode hard and put away wet.”
For some added utility these rifles are configured with a side loading gate to make loading and keeping the magazine topped off as easy as possible. However the magazine tube is still removable for safe easy unloading.
The .30-30 is the preeminent caliber of choice for millions of deer hunters.
