Recently, Henry Repeating Arms released its newest rifle lineup—the Henry X series. The Henry X series includes four lever action rifles and one shotgun.

The Henry X prototype originally debuted two years ago at NRAAM 2018. The interest in the prototype was so high that Henry Arms made the Henry X a reality. The Henry X are chambered in 44 MAG/SPL, .357 MAG/.38 SPL, .45 Long Colt, .45-70, and .410. All these rifles are the first from Henry to be chambered in pistol calibers with a side loading gate.

The X series models sport: lightweight synthetic furniture, a rubber recoil pad, M-Lok accessory slots, a Picatinny rail, fiber optic sights, optics capable, and has integrated sling swivel studs.

All models of X series have threaded barrels to mount a suppressor or muzzle device if you so choose. The rifles are all threaded at the muzzle end with a 5/8×24 thread pitch. The shotgun is threaded internally to allow for Invector-style choke.

The Henry X series rifles and shotgun retail at $970.

Below is the press release from Henry Repeating Arms on the release of the Henry X series.

BAYONNE, NJ – January 21, 2020 – Henry is introducing a highly anticipated new product line today with the X Model series, a concept that was first teased at the 2018 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Dallas, TX. All the firearms included in this new product launch are designed from the ground up to bring unparalleled versatility and utility to not only Henry’s line of rifles and shotguns, but the lever action platform in general. All five models are now available nationwide from licensed firearms dealers with an MSRP across the board of $970.00.

Anthony Imperato, President and owner of Henry Repeating Arms says, “The sheer volume of positive feedback we received about the concept guns we brought to Dallas was incredible, and this type of strong feedback is what tends to drive our product development plans.” Imperato continues, “It’s exciting to kick off the year with such a highly requested line of firearms and finally make these guns a reality.”

The X Model series consists of the Big Boy platform, chambered in .44 Mag/.44 Spl, .357 Mag./.38 Spl, and .45 Colt, a lever action .410 shotgun, and another rifle chambered in .45-70 Government. All five models sport durable and lightweight synthetic furniture with a solid rubber recoil pad on the pistol-gripped buttstock, Picatinny and M-Lok accessory slots on the forestock, and integrated sling swivel studs. The matte blued steel receivers utilize a side loading gate to keep the removable tube magazine loaded and they are all drilled and tapped to accept an optics mount. The rifles are all threaded at the muzzle end with a 5/8×24 thread pitch to accommodate a suppressor or other muzzle device. The shotgun’s smooth bore barrel is threaded internally for a removable invector style choke and contrasting fiber optic sights adorn all of the X Models with the .410 shotgun variation using only a front sight.
