I knew that I wanted to do more than just swab the barrel and wipe down the exterior but the disassembly video on the Henry site is really DISASSEMBLY! I just wanted to figure out how to pull the bolt not having ever owned a lever action before and found a good video I thought I would share. I have since pulled out the bolt, gave it a good solid clean along with the interior of the receiver and cleaned the gunk off the lever. A little oil and put it back together and it is like glass its so smooth.
