Overview

The Henry H1 Western Rifle is a modern take on a timeless design, produced by Henry Repeating Arms—a brand synonymous with American-made quality. This rifle features a 20-inch barrel, a brasslite receiver, and a straight-grip walnut stock. It’s a .22-caliber lever-action that cycles Short, Long, and Long Rifle cartridges interchangeably, plus a dedicated .22 Magnum version. For Alabama shooters, it’s an ideal companion for backyard plinking, pest control, or introducing new shooters to the sport. The action is smooth right out of the box, and the octagonal barrel gives it that classic Western profile without the heavy weight of older models.

Features & Specs

Here’s what you need to know about the Henry H1 Western Rifle’s build and performance. Every spec is designed to make your time at the range or in the field more enjoyable.

• Caliber Options: .22 S/L/LR (interchangeable) and .22 Magnum. This flexibility means you can shoot budget-friendly .22 LR for practice or .22 Magnum for varmints and small game.
• Barrel and Action: 20-inch octagonal barrel with a brasslite receiver and a smooth, dependable lever action. The brasslite finish resists corrosion—handy in Alabama’s humid climate.
• Capacity and Sights: Tube magazine holds 15 rounds of .22 LR or 11 rounds of .22 Magnum. Features a brass bead front sight and a buckhorn rear sight, adjustable for windage and elevation.

The rifle weighs about 6.5 pounds, making it easy to carry on a long walk through the woods or to the truck for a quick shooting session. The walnut stock has a satin finish that feels solid without being slippery.

Who It’s For

The Henry H1 Western Rifle is built for shooters who value tradition and versatility. If you live in Alabama and spend weekends plinking at the farm, teaching a family member to shoot, or hunting rabbits and squirrels, this rifle fits the bill. Its light recoil and simple operation make it a great choice for first-time rifle owners, while experienced shooters will appreciate the crisp trigger and reliable feeding. It’s not a long-range precision tool—it’s a fun, honest lever-action that puts a smile on your face after every shot. You don’t need to be a collector to enjoy it, but it has enough style to earn a spot in any gun safe.

• Best for recreational target shooting, small-game hunting, and introducing new shooters to lever-action rifles.
• Ideal for Alabama’s diverse terrain, from open fields to wooded areas, where a lightweight .22 shines.
• Perfect for those who want a reliable, American-made rifle without breaking the bank.

• Not suited for big-game hunting or long-distance precision work—this is a close-to-mid-range shooter.
• Requires manual cycling, so it’s not a semi-auto for rapid fire.
