Idaho Gun Shop stocks the Henry H9 Explorer Carbine .30-30 Win 16.5″ Lever-Action — priced at $1401.99 and shipped promptly to your Idaho FFL dealer.
Why Idaho Hunters Choose This
The .30-30 Winchester cartridge has killed more North American deer than any other centerfire round in history — and the Henry H9 Explorer Carbine is the finest modern lever gun chambering it. With a 16.5-inch Burnt Bronze Cerakote barrel, optics-ready drilled-and-tapped receiver, and pistol-grip walnut stock, the H9 Explorer bridges Idaho’s traditional hunting heritage with 21st-century practicality.
The short 16.5-inch barrel makes the H9 Explorer exceptionally handy — quick to mount in thick brush, easy to carry all day in the Clearwater River drainage, and fast on running whitetail in the Panhandle’s dense timber. At 6.75 pounds, it won’t drag you down over a long elk season, and the ventilated rubber recoil pad tames the light recoil of the .30-30 for comfortable extended range sessions.
The drilled-and-tapped receiver accepts standard scope mounts for those who want to extend their range, while the semi-buckhorn iron sights are regulated for fast close-range shots. This is the ultimate Idaho timber deer rifle — proven by generations, refined for modern hunters.

Idaho Hunting & Shooting Culture
Idaho is one of the most firearm-friendly states in the nation — constitutional carry with no permit required, no assault weapon restrictions, suppressor ownership allowed with ATF approval, and some of the best hunting in the lower 48. Mule deer, whitetail, elk, black bear, mountain lion, moose, turkey, pheasant, chukar, Hungarian partridge, waterfowl, and world-class predator opportunities make Idaho a destination for serious hunters. Idaho Gun Shop stocks firearms selected specifically for Idaho’s seasons, terrain, and hunting culture.
