Is yours a Henry if so how do you like it?I’m a stainless and chrome guy (hate case hardened) so I vote for all weather. Mainly because I have the all weather 44 mag lol. Very durable when I’m deer hunting and it’s raining or snowing. Or when I lay it on the ground
Yup Henry. Got it in 2017 or so. Love it. Been sitting in the pouring rain with it. I did have a minor issue with the stock where it meets the receiver when it got wet. It started cracking a bit - VERY small. Called Henry and they sent me a whole new stock and forend for free. I haven’t swapped it out yet as I figured I’ll keep using this and then have a backup.Is yours a Henry if so how do you like it?
The all weather appeals to me for the sole reason of its not a high maintenance girl. Just clean it and rub a little oil on it and put it away till next time.
If I go camping I don’t have to worry about cold air dew, or if it’s raining, since I don’t have any gun that would handle that well it’s another tick towards all weather.
However my big boy.357 has filled that role for now but I almost cry when I pick it up and it’s all wet with dew.
Note I am camping and hanging out, not hunting I just like to have a rifle when I’m out in the woods hanging with my friends by a fire.
Real shame with the Creekside Gun Ship in Holcomb, NY closed; used to go there as soon as I was old enough to drive to use their range (public and free).I like the look of both and I don’t think you’ll go wrong with either… something about the color case hardened has a lot of sex-appeal to me…
I paid $$$ to get my Ruger Mark IV color case hardened by Turnbull, just because… ultimately, I’m into heirloom firearms that I hope to pass down some day and I wanted this to be one of them…
I guess what I’m saying is, what do you want yours to be?

It is really tempting to say something here.........not a high maintenance girl. Just clean it and rub a little oil on it and put it away till next time.
