Henry rifles don't have a cross bolt safety (Marlin), nor do they have a tang safety like a Winchester, do they have a hammer block like a H&R handi rifle, Ruger Blackhawk or something like the old Marlins where you have the half cock?

Henrys do not have a half cock but have a transfer bar in the hammer. From a review by the American Rifleman: "The hammer contains a transfer bar safety which prevents the rifle from firing unless the hammer is cocked and the trigger is pressed."
