RICE LAKE, Wis., January 20, 2026

Henry Repeating Arms, one of America’s leading firearms manufacturers and a world-leader in the lever-action rifle category, is launching two new product families with its Protector Carbines, which are compact and suppressor-ready for everyday utility and peace of mind, and its Provider Rifles, which are dedicated hunting rifles focused on putting meat in the freezer, season after season.

“The lever action is one of the most versatile rifle platforms ever made, but that doesn’t mean they’re always one-size-fits-all,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “The new Protector Carbines and Provider Rifles offer new configurations with a clear purpose to suit the real-world needs of American rifle owners.”

Provider Rifles: Built for the Woodsman

The Provider Rifles are designed for hunters who value the ergonomics of a pistol-grip stock and maximum capacity over the ability to mount a suppressor. Each features a 20” non-threaded blued steel barrel paired with a longer tube magazine capable of holding up to 6 rounds in the rifle calibers and 10 rounds in the pistol calibers.

Provider Rifle calibers include

All Provider Rifles carry an MSRP of $1,135.

Protector Carbines: Built to Be Ready

Protector Carbines are lighter, more compact, and built to live unobtrusively close at hand. With shorter 16.5″ barrels and threaded muzzles for use with a suppressor, these carbines emphasize maneuverability, comfort, and everyday capability.

All Protector Carbines carry an MSRP of $1,200.

Both Protectors and Providers feature a matte blued steel receiver finish, checkered genuine American walnut pistol-grip stocks, ventilated, pre-installed sling swivel studs, fully adjustable sights, and receivers drilled and tapped for optics mounting.

The new Protector Carbines and Provider Rifles are shipping now and available for sale through an authorized Henry dealer.
