The centrefire single-shot rifle has an extensive history among hunters looking for a dependable and accurate game-getter, without having to spend more than necessary for good quality and basic function.
This elegantly simple rifle features a 22” round barrel, fully adjustable folding leaf rear sight, brass bead front sight, a drilled and tapped provision for mounting an optional scope, walnut front and rear furniture, a curved pistol grip wrist, solid rubber recoil pad, and a non-ejecting case extractor.
With a familiar locking lever on top of the frame, behind the external hammer spur, to break the barrel open. The lever can be pivoted either left or right from its center position to unlock, which works well for both left and right-handed shooters. The action has no external manual safety; it uses a rebounding hammer that can’t touch the firing pin unless the trigger’s deliberately pulled, and an interlock system that doesn’t allow the barrel to open if the hammer’s cocked, or the barrel to close if the hammer’s cocked while it’s open. Quick to load or unload, safe to carry, and simple to operate.
This single-shot rifle is aimed at the challenge of hunting with only one round on board, and hunters who prefer the uncomplicated durability of the design. Make no mistake though, while some might consider a single-shot an entry-level proposition, this rifle is built to the same high standards as all of Henry rifles, and not to be a budget model in any sense of the word.
Born to hunt, we expect you to work this gun, and work it hard.
