A Traditional Take on the PCC: Henry’s Non-Threaded Homesteader

Henry Repeating Arms made waves with its semi‑automatic Homesteader 9 mm carbine in 2023—a rifle that marries traditional lines and walnut stock with modern, modular functionality. What made it stand out initially was a threaded barrel and compatibility with multiple handgun magazines through swappable mag-well adapters for Glock, SIG, and S&W—combining versatility with Henry’s classic styling.

Why a Non‑Threaded Version Matters

Recently, a non-threaded variant has become available, offering a workaround for states with regulations on threaded-barrel firearms—often categorized under "assault weapon" restrictions due to their ability to accept muzzle devices. This new version keeps the same core performance and visual appeal, while aligning with legal requirements in restrictive jurisdictions.

The Homesteader’s hardwood stocks and traditional lines also help it comply with certain regional feature restrictions. This allows the rifle to be sold in areas where more tactical-style PCCs may not be available.

This non-threaded model is likely identified as Model H027N-H9G, designed with state compliance in mind.

Mud Lake Ranch Weighs In

Jared from Mud Lake Ranch sums it up best:

“It's a PCC in an unsuspecting footprint. It's just different than all the other pistol caliber carbines out there. Everybody else went tactical and Henry went Traditional. Which is a departure from what everyone else is doing and that's cool.”

That quote captures the Homesteader’s unique market position—it’s a pistol caliber carbine that leans into traditional firearm design rather than chasing the modern tactical trend.
