The American Beauty treatment is factory-applied and features scroll engraving with a prominent right-side rose over an "AMERICAN BEAUTY" banner. A 14K rose-gold rose is integrated into the receiver artwork, highlighting the edition’s distinctive theme. The receiver, buttplate, and barrel band are nickel-plated for a bright, durable finish.
Built on the Golden Boy platform, this rifle uses a 20-inch octagon blued steel barrel with a 1:16 twist, paired with an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight and a brass-bead front sight. A hammer 1/4-cock safety is retained in keeping with the traditional design.
The stock and handguard are American walnut, with a straight grip and a classic crescent buttplate. The fit and finish reflect Henry’s U.S. manufacture and attention to detail, with markings that read "HENRY REPEATING ARMS – BAYONNE NJ – MADE IN USA" and "CALIBERS .22 S/L/LR."
Chambered in .22 LR, the tube-fed magazine accepts up to 16 rounds and uses a removable inner brass tube. Operation is smooth and familiar with the lever-action mechanism, and the overall package balances well at 6.75 pounds.
Dimensions are practical and well-proportioned for the platform: 38.5 inches overall length and a 14.0-inch length of pull. The rifle’s model designation H004AB is confirmed by the matching factory box label.
