Rest assured, when reading the roll-mark on the barrel of a Henry it’s going to say “Made in the USA.”
In every field of human endeavor there is a select group of individuals who are given credit for making such major contributions and become synonymous with their achievements.
In the area of firearms development, one name that must be included on that honored roster is Benjamin Tyler Henry. His invention: The Henry Rifle.
It was Mr. Henry who conceived the first practical, lever action repeating rifle patented in 1860.
The Henry gave a single man the firepower of a dozen marksmen armed with muzzle-loading muskets.
America was engulfed in the searing flames of the Civil War, and the first Henry rifles were in the hands of Union soldiers by mid 1862.
Due to its revolutionary design and rapid rate of fire, the Henry quickly found popularity both with the military and civilian purchasers.
Early sales were especially brisk in Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri and Indiana.
The Henry rifle would go on to play a significant, if not dominant role in the frontier days of the American West.
It would soon become one of the most legendary, respected and sought after rifles in the history of firearms.
A contemporary rifle collection isn’t complete without one.
