Henry Original Henry | .44-40 Win | 24.5in Octagon | 13rd | H011

The Henry Repeating Arms Original Henry is a full-size lever-action rifle chambered in .44-40 Winchester with a 24.5 inch octagon barrel and a polished brass receiver. It pairs traditional lines and period-correct features—such as a fancy American walnut stock and a hardened brass buttplate—with modern manufacturing and a grooved receiver that accepts a scope base. For optics under $1000, a rugged, low-profile scope like the Vortex Crossfire II 3-9×40 provides a durable, affordable pairing that preserves the rifle’s sight picture while improving sighting utility for field and target use. Appropriate applications include traditional metallic silhouette or cowboy action-style target shooting and medium-game hunting where the cartridge is suitable.
