Henry Rifles’ American Beauty Review

Hailing from the award-winning Golden Boy family of Henry Repeating Arms comes The American Beauty. She’s got good genes, as she gleams, glitters and packs a nice tight little punch downrange on target or on small game.

Named after the American Beauty Rose, and featuring said rose as an embellishment on the main panel in a lovely floral scroll pattern—hand-cut by master engraver Heidi Roos and enhanced with 14k rose gold plating on the petals—this lever-action, .22 LR gun has been created to embody the spirit of the American woman.

And embody it it does. I love lever actions because these guns channel me back to the days of the Old West, to Annie Oakley and Calamity Jane and all those pioneer women who locked and loaded by working a lever before they shot varmints, or protected their young-uns.
