Got Lever Action? If the answer is No, then my condolences to you because really don’t know what you’re missing out on! A combination of fine American Steel, Wood, and Brass. Hand cranking everything from 22lr all the way up to 45-70 into the chamber always equals fun and enjoyment. Founded by Louis & Anthony Imperato, in Brooklyn NY. Henry Repeating Arms has been producing the highest quality Lever Actions based on Benjamin Tyler Henry’s original rifle since 1996.

Henry makes fine guns, but they have NOTHING to do with Benjamin Tyler Henry's rifle. Not only that, Mr. Henry was not around in 1996; he was largely behind the development of the Winchester Repeating Arms Co. Oliver Winchester marketed the Henry Rifle in 1860 and it saw use in the Civil War, thanks to President Lincoln. In 1866 a new improved version was introduced, and in 1873 the first true Winchester Rifle came out using that name.
The new Henry rifles are unrelated design-wise to those old 19th century rifles from Winchester. They're actually more akin to Marlins. |

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
