Why We’re Stocking This
At Hernandez Tactical, we stock firearms we believe in, and the Henry name is a cornerstone of that belief. We’ve handled and sold countless Henry rifles, and their rimfire lever actions are consistently the ones that put the biggest grin on a customer’s face. When we saw this expansion of the H1 platform, it was an immediate “yes.” This lineup solves a common request we get: “I want a Henry .22, but I wish it came in a different style.” Now it does. We’re stocking the full range because our customers range from traditionalists who want that classic walnut and blued steel to newer shooters looking for a modular, optics-ready platform. Henry’s quality control is exceptional, and their customer service is legendary—two things that matter deeply to us as a shop that stands behind every gun we sell.
Bringing in this entire new Henry Repeating Arms H1 series is a direct investment in our community’s shooting sports. These are the perfect rifles for introducing new shooters, for affordable weekend plinking, and for serious small-game hunters. They’re built to last generations, and they represent the kind of value and craftsmanship we want associated with our shop’s name. We’ve already placed a substantial order to ensure we have these models on our racks, because we know firsthand how a smooth Henry lever action feels, and we can’t wait to put these new H1 variants in your hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s the main difference between all these new Henry H1 models?
A: It boils down to stock and furniture. The Western models feature classic walnut and blued steel. The Sporter has a more streamlined, traditional hunting stock. The Bandit offers a unique, compact look. The H1 X Model is the modern tactical take with synthetic furniture and Picatinny rails. They all share the same legendary Henry Repeating Arms H1 lever-action heart, just dressed for different purposes and personalities.
Q: Is the .22 Magnum or .17 HMR version worth it over the standard .22 LR?
A: For pure plinking and cost-per-round, the .22 LR is king. If you’re primarily a hunter, the step up to .22 Magnum or .17 HMR from Henry Repeating Arms gives you significantly more range and energy for cleaner takedowns on small game. We can help you decide based on your primary use. Having the choice within the same H1 platform is a huge advantage.
Q: Are these new Henry rifles still made in the USA?
A: Yes. Henry Repeating Arms proudly manufactures its firearms in the United States. Their main rimfire operation is in Wisconsin, and they maintain their commitment to American labor and materials. The “Made in the USA” or “Bayonne, NJ” marking is a point of pride on every Henry we’ve ever handled.
