Henry Repeating Arms has unveiled new rimfire lever-action models, including the H1 Western Rifle with a pistol grip, the H1 Western Frontier Rifle featuring a polished octagon barrel, and the H1 Sporter Rifle designed for optics use. The lineup emphasizes diverse designs, enhancing traditional looks and functionality for shooters of all levels, including youth.
Henry Repeating Arms state “The H1 Western Rifle brings a fresh take to Henry’s base model rimfire lever action with a pistol grip-style buttstock, checkered genuine American walnut furniture, an 18.5-inch round blued steel barrel, adjustable semi-buckhorn sights, and a 3/8-inch grooved receiver cover for optional optics mounting. Available in .22 S/L/LR and .22 Magnum, it offers a familiar favorite with a new feel.
Similarly, the new H1 Western Frontier Rifle brings a checkered furniture set with a pistol grip-style buttstock to Henry’s H1 Frontier Rifle model, featuring a 20-inch polished blued steel octagon barrel, giving it a distinct feel from its straight-stocked predecessor. It offers another standout configuration within the growing H1 family for those who appreciate traditional design queues, all-day rimfire fun, and a profile that looks like it rode straight out of the Old West.
The H1 Sporter Rifle & Carbine is a step toward a more dedicated feature set, this time for plinkers, target shooters, and small game hunters who prefer to use optics and a suppressor. Because the platform is optics-ready from the start, there are no iron sights, keeping the sight picture clear when using low-mounted optics. A receiver cover with an integrated Picatinny rail makes mounting simple without an additional base, while the checkered genuine American walnut pistol grip-style Monte Carlo buttstock helps create a more natural cheek weld so the user’s eye lines up behind the optic.
The lineup features round blued steel barrels threaded 1/2×28 for suppressor use, with magazine tubes designed to clear suppressors with an outside diameter of 1 inch or less. The rifle is available with an 18.5-inch barrel in .22 S/L/LR, .22 Magnum, and .17 HMR, while the 16.5-inch carbine is available in .22 S/L/LR and .22 Magnum.
The H1 Bandit Rifle packs the big features found in the H1 Sporter Rifle into a smaller package with a 13-inch length of pull for larger youth or smaller-framed adults. The Bandit is available in .22 S/L/LR and .22 Magnum.
The H1 X Model brings one of Henry’s most popular centerfire configurations to its most popular rimfire lever-action platform. Weighing just 5 pounds, it is Henry’s lightest rimfire lever action and features a 16.5-inch 1/2×28 threaded barrel, canted magazine tube for suppressor clearance, fully adjustable fiber optic sights, integrated Picatinny rail, black synthetic furniture, M-LOK accessory slots, sling swivel studs, and an adjustable length of pull from 14-inches to 13.5-inches using included spacers. It is available in .22 S/L/LR and .22 Magnum.
Across the lineup, the new H1 models expand the platform in every direction, from western-inspired walnut-stocked rifles to lightweight synthetic options, optics-ready configurations, suppressor-capable barrels, and compact youth-friendly fits. The result is a broader, more purpose-built H1 family that keeps the fun, affordability, and smooth lever-action performance shooters expect from Henry while opening the door to new uses and new generations of owners, just as the H1 platform has done for over two decades.”
