Don't be fooled. The Henry All Weather is not an all weather rifle. It is chrome plating on the surface. No plating in the bore where the real protection is needed. Here where I live & hunt the weather can be very cold & wet. An unprotected bore can rust. A real all weather rifle has at least a stainless barrel. When you get ready to hunt you need to remove all oil from the bore plus shoot a fouling shot.If you don't the first shot out of an oiled bore can be way off. With my stainless barreled rifles I shoot a couple fouling shots before I go to hunting camp . Then I can hunt for days knowing my stainless Bbl. will significantly resist rust. I have seen carbon steel rust over night in a snowy hunting camp.I contacted Henry about their so called All Weather rifle& just got all kinds of excuses . Stainless cost more, but you get what you pay for.I think Henry makes a decent product but to call it all weather it needs to be stainless or at least a chrome plated bore.
