Made In America And Priced Right. Henry Repeating Arms takes its name from Benjamin Tyler Henry, the man who patented history’s first repeating rifle in 1860. In honor of this iconic inventor, the modern-day firearms manufacturer resurrected the Henry name in 1996 and currently produces their rifles in two different plants, one located in Bayonne, New Jersey, and the other in Rice Lake, Wisconsin.
Today, Henry ranks as the number five leading long-gun producer in the United States, quite an impressive accomplishment considering the company doesn’t even produce shotguns, bolt-action hunting guns, or tactical firearms but rather specializes in nostalgic lever and pump-action rifles. Inspired by the original Henry rifle, the Frontier series is a Western-style lever action rifle. 22 rimfires capable of rapid, accurate shooting. Buy Henry Lever Action Octagon Frontier 17 HMR Online
Any fan of John Wayne will immediately recognize the profile and styling of this gun. The rifle has a nice heft and solid feel to it, enough that it will never be mistaken for a toy. It has a distinctive look that is popular among Old West enthusiasts. Owing to its huge popularity, the Henry is anywhere from one-half to one-third the price of its nearest competitors and entirely made in the U.S.A.
At the heart of the design is an extremely smooth action. It is so smooth, in fact, that many first-timers simply cannot believe the gun has any internal parts. Buy Henry Lever Action Octagon Frontier 17 HMR Online
The Henry Frontier Octagon is fed through a tubular magazine located beneath the barrel and is capable of holding 12- rounds. Loading is fairly straightforward: simply twist the magazine cap and remove the inner brass magazine tube, then begin dropping rounds in through the loading port. Once fully loaded, replace the inner magazine tube and twist and lock it back in place.
An 24″ heavy octagon barrel provides excellent downrange accuracy. The rear sight is a Marbles fully adjustable semi-buckhorn, and the brass beaded front sight is well defined. Buy Henry Lever Action Octagon Frontier 17 HMR Online
All steel parts, such as the barrel and lever, have a deep blue finish. The receiver is black-anodized. Weighing in at 7 pounds, the rifle can attribute its light weight and fast handling to an aluminum alloy receiver that has an integral rimfire scope rail for adding optics. The buttstock and for end are American walnut, which gives the rifle a very pleasing and stylish appearance.
While the Henry Frontier Octagon .22 Magnum lacks a manual safety, it does have a half-cock safety that acts as a firing pin block, and works effectively at preventing the gun from discharging if dropped or banged. A transfer bar safety prevents the gun from being discharged unless the hammer has been cocked all the way back, then the trigger is depressed. Buy Henry Lever Action Octagon Frontier 17 HMR Online
The rifle automatically returns to the safe position if the hammer is lowered manually. For repair or maintenance, this family-owned company arguably carries the best no-
nonsense lifetime warranty in the industry. Overall, the Henry Frontier 24″ Octagon .22 Magnum is an exceptionally smooth, accurate, and reliable rimfire rifle made entirely here in the U.S.A. by craftsmen who take pride in their products. Buy Henry Lever Action Octagon Frontier 17 HMR Online
