I won the Henry pump in an online giveaway. When I got it, it had some dings on the stock and minor scratches. I didn’t mind so much since it was free. I contacted Henry for pricing on a replacement stock. Their customer service sent me a brand new one free of charge instead. The lady just said tell all your friends how Henry treats their customers. That blew my mind that they would do that. Excellent, fun rifle. Superb customer service

An excellent review. While I can tell you prefer the Henry, you didn't bash the Rossi and gave ups and downs of each. Very credible presentation and review. Well done.

A no BS side by side comparison. Thanks 👍

Good no nonsense presentation. I ended up purchasing the Henry. Thanks for posting.

One of the best reviews I've watched. Very informative.

The Rossi is now available in 22 mag.Pump and lever.

Daum that was the best comparison video I have seen , very informative and precise.

Had a Henry pump---it was an old model with thin barrel they stopped making ages ago and was in bad shape, didn't work, always jammed due to abuse....was worth about $50 in parts. I sent it back to Henry and they couldn't fix it due to lack of parts as it as discontinued model so they sent me a brand new rifle worth $500. Best warranty ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a great , to the point, no BS review. Bravo !

Great comparison Kristin. Thanks for sharing. JT

I would love the Henry in 22wmr :-)

I have two RUGER 10/22's which are both great shooters but, there's something about a slide action. .22 that brings back memories from my youth. That Henry is mighty appealing.

I traded into a Henry 22lr pump today. I already have a 22Magnum version. Love that rifle, and cant wait to shoot my new LR model this week

This was exactly the video I needed to choose between the two, thanks so much.

I own a rossi gallery gun and I know it cycles 22 Short ammo. It runs CB Short rounds better than cci "Quiet" long rifle rounds. I have to use more force when cycling the 22LR to insure that the bolt closure is enough for it to fire, but not while running 22short or 22long. It has been like that since the first time I shot it so it is not a matter of being dirty. But I have a little 4X scope mounted on it and enjoy backyard plinking without disturbing any neighbors.

I have the Rossi pump in Australia and wow we pay a premium for firearms here. The Rossi cost about $650 aud and the Henry was $1250 aud

ALWAYS enjoy another Kristin video! She is great at what she does. I have three Henry rifles, a Big Boy in .357, a Big Boy in .45-70 and a Single Shot in .243. I love them! I hesitate to buy a Henry in .22, that giant billboard on the barrel is just ugly. Besides, I can't cheat on my 1973 Glenfield .22 that I got for Christmas in 1973 and works perfectly.

Kristen is the best hands down. Wish all women had her talent……

I enjoy watching her videos shes straight to the point

Easy choice. Spend a little more for the Henry and have something to pass down to the kids and grandkids.

She is one of my favorite firearms reviewer

That’s a great review! Thank you for the detail, great effort is apprecated.

Thanks for the review

This was a fantastic comparison and review of both rifles.

exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the review.

I have bought several Henry rifles, I think I have a version of just about everything in their catalog lol. So I am rather biased. But I also have a couple of Rossi guns. Kristin is an amazing reviewer, very thorough. She hit all the points to consider really, but for my personal preference the fact it’s American made and made well, with a customer service backing like no other, I go Henry every time. Ruger is a fine company, but overall Henry is the best American gun maker right now, HANDS DOWN.

I understand her easily even without closed caption. Nice review.

Excellent review. Thank you.

Awesome detailed video, thank you!

The fact stands true with lever action. If its not Henry, its a lesser firearm. Im going to go on a limb and say thats true with pump action 22's as well.

Great review! I got a Henry based on her review.

Good video, concise, well done. Great presenter.

Rossi also made an octagon barrel version of this rifle.

Not sure about the U.S but down under the Henry is double the price of the Rossi.

Just bought the Henry

Great comparison. 👍

I have the Henry and it's a good rifle Never shot the Rossi but I handled it in the store and it's quite a bit lighter than the Henry which might make a difference for some people. As for the safety I think it's something that has to be on there on imported rifles but I'm not 100% sure on that one.

I have a Rossi 62 that is top ejection. It can be slam fired.

Good, informative video. Sounds like they are both worth what they cost, so I guess I'll just have to buy one of each. :-) My lever-action .22 Henry is my favorite .22 to shoot though.

Very well spoken Ma'am

I’m impressed with Kristin. Her knowledge and ability makes her presentation very good.

Great stuff , thanks for sharing. I’ll stick with the Henry over a Rossi.

I’ve got a Rossi about 30 yrs ago in a dog trade/sale n it’s a good shooting gun, miss fires some but not often enough to complain , personally I’d buy the Henry myself cause of the warranty n better rifle over all !!

I have a Henry and a rossi lever action 22 I'd like to have both of the pumps to I'm a fan of both companys

I have both of these guns. I kind of hate to say it but the Rossi is more fun to shoot for less money just my opinion.

Have an old Remington Fieldmaster 572…

You left out the key difference and thats the caliber they can shoot. 22 shorts are crazy fun for plinking cans and old fruit.

Kristin has to be my fav host

This gal is awesome. Nice review

You sang a song to my start spangled heart and I know which one I am getting in .22 wmr

Very informative video, As a lover of vintage guns my first choice would be a Winchester model 61 or 62. pump. But beautiful collector guns are being priced out of the hands of anyone who's not a millionaire. So $1800.00 for a worn out classic .22 or around $600 for a brand-new Henry. In this comparison to me the Henry is a no brainer. The only thing is that Henry rimfire rifles have diecast receivers. (not steel). That's why the receivers are painted not blued. The die cast receivers are very strong and proven. Steel is just a preference for me. But in this case, I would have no qualms about buying the Henry pump.

I owned the Henry pump but to be honest it was too heavy for shooting. It was always the rifle that stayed behind.

Quality and lifetime waranty is well worth the extra $240.

Henry may have a life time warranty but only if the company is still operating. Many great firearms companies have gone belly up. Marlin, Remington. Etc. so warranty only if the company is still operating. I think that's more appropriate to say.

Got 2 Henry's already.. now I'm jonesing for a third!

Henry has a lifetime warranty Rossi ..1 year

That oversized trigger and trigger guard on both of them get zero points for style. I think I'll keep my eye out for an old original for about the same money.

I still like your voice. It's very distinctive. Yes you sound like a kid. But the crackle is fun. Plus guns

Remington Model 572 would be another choice in a .22 pump.

I think I would rather buy an old Winchester at a gun show. I still shoot the Model 12s too. I admit to being a fan of the original Winchesters!

So I have the Rossi version but it’s an older version and I believe it to be more metal parts and probably a little better build quality than this Rossi. It is a beautiful gun, lightweight and I’ve never had a single issue with it. It functions flawlessly whether the gun is dirty or clean! I would not trade it for anything in the world! When I held one of these Henry’s in a local store, it was extremely hard to pump the gun and function the action. Like she said in the video I’m sure it will break in and not have an issue but I also noticed a gun was heavier! I truly believe Henry is a better build quality and definitely a nicer rifle aesthetically, but is it worth 300 more dollars? That will be up to the person buying it. I handled one of these new Rossi‘s and a local store, and I can definitely tell a difference from my old Rossi compared to the new one. The new one does feel different, so if you already have a couple 22 caliber rifles and you’re just looking for something fun or something for your kid to learn on the Rossi would be great because it’s lighter weight and easier to handle than the Henry. However like she said, if you’re looking for a more long-term and pass the rifle down to your children etc. and may be a little better accuracy, the Henry would be the way to go. Great video by the way :-)

Thank you !!!

I Bought 5000Rd Of 22LR. It Was For A Good Price. Found Out Soon Why. Having Issues With My 10/22 Ruger. I Figured I Could Get A Pump Or Revolver. Revolvers Turned Me Off Because How Freaking Loud They Are Due To That Space Between Barrel And Cylinder. Bolt Action Rifles Meh. Lever Actions I Could See Fatiguing My Top Of Hand. The Pump Is What I After I Just Wish There Was More Options. I Shot The Rossi. It Can Get Some Weird Hard To Pump Situations When You Don't Properly Fully Pump Them Back. Also The Pump Wood Grooves Are Deep And Kind Of Sharp Giving You Blisters Pretty Early I Feel. I Had No Idea On Henry's Lifetime Warranty Which Might Actually Lean Me Twords It Now

Henry all the way!!

Henry hands down.

A pump action 22 was not even a glimmer in my eye until I saw the Remington fieldmaster 572 at the pawn shop. Then I knew that I had to have it. I had a bad experience buying a new Rossi Rio Bravo lever action because of the low quality steel that chipped out around the muzzle. Maybe you'll get a good one. I did not. American made is worth the extra money in my book. Even buying a good used American gun is worth spending the same amount as a new one from Brazil, or in my case, I spent an extra hundred on the Remington over what I paid for the Rossi.

The Rossi is a P.O.S.!! The receiver is Zmak pot metal and the barrels will literally BREAK OFF if any sideways pressure is put on the receiver when the end of the stock and end of the barrel is resting on something solid. _ Ask me how I know! Google it, or look here on KZfaq for examples of the barrel breaking off / receiver defect - which is not covered by the warranty. I bought 2 for my grandsons, one didn't even last a year. Buy a Henry - there is no comparison in the quality/ construction of these two rifles.

Idk why people call him farmer with shotgun when it's clearly a lever action rifle not even a pump one maybe it's all because of the sound but here's the thing there do are lever action shotguns aswell so to keep the balance of the truth and meme let's just say he loads is rifle with both kinds of ammo that's how badass the farmer is 😎

i had the choice of a $265 henry large-loop, lever-action carbine, a $200 rossi lever-action carbine and a $200 rossi pump-action rifle all in 22lr at my lgs four years ago. the henry was a dinged, “new old stock,” floor model thus a bit lower-priced than normal. the rossi rifles felt decidedly cheaper and flimsier when racking the action. henry versus rossi is like ruger versus heritage, you get what you pay for. i wish this review had gone into more detail comparing each’s slide action and had fieldstripped each. it was a bit superficial.

Company's gonna make a winchester look alike , it needs to look like a winchester . Other wise it doesn't compare in any form or fashion , both company's can keep them .

I've got the rossi in a 357 iron sights only,,and its VERY accurate aint had a minutes problem,,I got it from a fellow that owed me money and I won't ever sell it

Thanks for the great review. Your accent is too durn cute.

My Rossi must be old, it shoots all 3 22’s Short, long and long rifle.

I'll take both please

How about weight difference?

As someone who grew up knocking over Barqs rootbeer cans with an old Colt Lightning, I'm super pumped (see what I did there?) to see all these "trombone guns" in production these days.

Henry all day. Budget guns are actually never worth the money. Save up and buy something that will last more than a lifetime.

Have you ever compared the Browning lever action to the Henry Long Ranger??

Ruger and Henry , Made in America . I want to keep my money here in the USA .

So want one threaded.

Neither will bet the original Winchester.

What's the weight difference between them?

Receiver steel ? 5:54

I wish Henrys were made with steel vs zinc.

Well I think my mind is made up, thank you. Henry it is.

Sadly, both these models are cheap imitations of the Winchester model 62. Neither is a "take-down" model and both aren't solid steel action housings. My Rossi model 62 is from 1982 and has the 16.5" barrel, it's a true take-down with captive screw. Mine IS all steel and was imported by Interarms of Virginia. My Rossi is top eject not side eject like these two. It shoots short, long and LR fodder interchangeably. it has no disconnector so slam fire is possible for really fast shooting. My Rossi has mahogany stocks and though a scope (optics) can't be attached, you can add a swell Williams type peep sight behind the hammer to increase the sight radius from eleven inches adding a few more, mine also has only the halfcock safety. With over 20,000 rounds thru my Rossi I'd say it's durable. Hell, it's lasted me over forty years. Never a jam, stovepipe or failure due to rifle function (rimfire ammo can have duds). My Rossi cost $120 back in '82. Don't buy this cheap (certainly not price-wise) trash. Get yourself an original Rossi 62-SAC carbine. It's worth every penny. If I'm lyin', I'm dyin'. Fuhgeddaboudit.

My Rossi is complete garbage, and I want to smash it with a sledgehammer. I'm buying a Henry, like I should have.

Both made in america

Given the terribly slow service department at Rossi, it makes this a no brainer. Guess which rifle you're most likely to return for service?

👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🔫🔫💯💯☕️☕️🛎

No brainer.

I'd have to pass on the Rossi simply because of that butt ugly trigger guard if for no other reason.

Rossi went cheap , to bad .
