Henry 250Th Anniversary Guns

Henry Repeating Arms is now shipping the America's 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Collection: three collector-grade lever-action rifles to mark the nation's 250th anniversary of independence.

The collection includes two offerings of the H1 .22 S/L/LR, one full-size and one youth model, and an H10 chambered in .45-70 Gov't. Each rifle in the collection shares the same defining features: a waving American flag rendered in full-color red, white, and blue Cerakote applied to a nickel-plated receiver, Fancy-grade American walnut selected for grain and figure, a polished nickel-plated buttplate, and a 250th anniversary logo engraved and silver-filled in the corner of the buttstock.

"Every firearm we build is a testament to our love of this country," said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. "The lever-action was designed here over 160 years ago, and it has never stopped being a part of the American story. The 250th anniversary is an occasion worth marking properly, and we built this collection to do exactly that."

Rifle Models:

  • H001TL-250 | America's 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Rifle .22 S/L/LR
    Built on the H1 Frontier Rifle platform, this full-size Tribute Edition features a 20-inch blued steel octagon barrel, fully-adjustable sights and a large loop lever. Capacity is 16 rounds of .22 LR.
  • H001Y-250 | America's 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Youth Model .22 S/L/LR
    The Youth Model carries the same finish, materials and craftsmanship as the full-size Tribute Edition in a shorter, lighter profile suited to younger enthusiasts and those who prefer a more compact rifle. Features a 16.5-inch round blued barrel and 13-round LR capacity.
  • H010BG-250 | America's 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Rifle .45-70 Gov't
    The flagship of the collection, built on the H10 platform and chambered in .45-70 Government, a cartridge that has been part of American firearms history since 1873. The receiver is nickel-plated hardened brass. Features a 22-inch blued steel octagon barrel, large-loop lever, sling swivel studs and is drilled and tapped for optics. Capacity is 4 rounds.
