I'd buy one if I didn't already have a Marlin 9mm camp rifle. They're fun to shoot for darn sure.

They need to make one as a Mare’s Leg.

Wow is right! Thanks for the link Gunny.
I think this is a very smart move by Henry. Most of us like to pair our pistol calibers with long guns and 9mm, as the article says, is very cheap to shoot for those of us who don't reload. I would certainly be interested in having one. Looks like fun.

Did you read the whole article? Glock mags (and others), drilled for a rail, Mossberg 500 style safety, threaded barrel, and several other features the old Marlin didn't have. I think this will be a big seller, especially if they make a line of them in other calibers.

Yep, and CA compliant in the basic configuration (not that I care about that). I might have to get one. MSRP will be close to $1000 from what I heard.

Oh, I wasn't pooh poohing the offering at all. Yes, I read the whole article but will stick with the Marlin Camp 9. I have two original Marlin Mags and two extended mags for it already (17 round mags). I don't' have a need for a suppressor so the threaded barrel wouldn't be something to make me buy one. Yes, it will sell like hotcakes!

Very nice. I’ve never liked a pistol caliber carbine that didn’t have a lever and have owned both an original Ruger and a AR style. The Ruger was okay but the AR was both unreliable and not very accurate. That being said, this Henry sure is nice looking. Love the simplicity and the clean lines of it. I could see me owning one. Homesteader, that’s a great name.

That is a really cool rifle. I like it's looks too.

Way cool, I’d be interested in one.
