A New Feel for a Familiar Favorite
Some rifles feel like they have been with you forever from the very first time you pick them up. The H1 Western Rifle has that kind of quality. Built on Henry’s time-tested rimfire lever-action platform, it carries forward the look, balance, and easygoing spirit that have made the lever gun an American favorite for generations, but with a shape that gives it a character all its own.
The defining feature is its pistol grip-style buttstock, a subtle departure from the straight-stocked H1 Classic Rifle that changes the feel in a way you notice right away. It nestles into the hand a little differently, brings a little more curve into the profile, and lends the rifle a touch of old-west personality without straying from the simple charm that makes a rimfire lever action so hard to put down.
Built for Rimfire Fun
This is the kind of rifle that feels just as right leaning in the corner of a cabin as it does riding along for an afternoon of plinking, wandering a fencerow, or easing through the timber in search of squirrels. The H1 Western Rifle is built for the simple pleasures of shooting, the kind that never need reinventing.
Its 18.5-inch round blued steel barrel gives it the classic silhouette a lever-action rimfire ought to have, quick to shoulder, steady in the hands, and equally suited for a slow morning at the range or a quiet walk in the woods. It is light on pretense, heavy on enjoyment, and ready for the kind of shooting that turns spare time into tradition.
Choose the Rimfire That Fits Your Needs
Whether you favor the versatility of .22 S/L/LR or the added punch of .22 Magnum, the H1 Western Rifle gives you a chambering to match the moment. The .22 S/L/LR version offers the flexibility to run multiple loads with generous capacity of 15 LR / 17 Long / 21 Short, making it a natural choice for all-day range sessions and casual plinking. The .22 Magnum version carries 12 rounds and adds the extra reach and authority many shooters appreciate in the field.
Whichever you choose, you are getting a rifle built around the kind of practical rimfire performance that has earned its place on porches, in pickup trucks, and along well-worn trails for generations.
Classic Sights. Practical Options.
The sight picture is pure tradition. A fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight paired with a hooded blade front sight keeps the H1 Western Rifle grounded in the visual language of the classic American lever gun. It looks right because it is right.
For those who prefer to stretch things out a bit farther or tailor the rifle to their own style, the 3/8-inch grooved receiver cover allows for optional optics base mounting, adding modern flexibility without taking away from its old-soul appeal.
A Lever Action Meant to Be Shot
The H1 Western Rifle is not the kind of rifle meant to live untouched in a safe. It is meant to ride along, to be reached for on a whim, to turn an ordinary afternoon into a better one. It is the rifle you grab for a few shots behind the barn, for a walk through the autumn woods, or for the simple satisfaction of running a lever and hearing steel ring back in reply.
Familiar, dependable, and full of character, the H1 Western Rifle offers a fresh take on a proven favorite, one that still feels every bit like a Henry.
