Henry Repeating Arms Golden Boy Silver .22 LR Lever-Action Rifle, 20 in Octagonal Barrel, Nickel-Plated Receiver, NRA Crest
This Henry Golden Boy Silver (Model H004S) stands out with its nickel-plated receiver cover and a 20-inch octagonal blued steel barrel, paired with classic American walnut furniture. A large, laser-etched "National Rifle Association of America" crest on the buttstock adds distinctive, collector-friendly detail. It retains the Golden Boy's smooth lever action, front-loading tubular magazine, and traditional iron sights, all made in the USA.

The Golden Boy Silver configuration features a nickel-plated receiver cover, barrel band, and buttplate for a bright contrast against the blued, 20-inch octagonal steel barrel. The receiver is alloy, and the action is the smooth, hammer-fired lever system Henry is known for.
Sighting is traditional and effective: a brass-bead blade front sight pairs with an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with a stepped elevator. The rifle wears a straight-grip American walnut stock with a 14.0-inch length of pull and a standard-size lever loop for comfortable cycling.
The front-loading tubular magazine includes a brass-colored follower window and a knurled end cap. Capacity is 16+1 with .22 LR, and the rifle also feeds .22 Short and .22 Long. There is no receiver loading gate by design.
Overall length is 38.5 inches, and weight is 6.75 pounds, offering steady handling without excess bulk. Markings include "HENRY REPEATING ARMS—BAYONNE NJ—MADE IN USA" on the barrel top and "MODEL H004S" stamped on the polished top of the receiver cover forward of the hammer, just behind the rear sight; the tang is unmarked. This example also carries a large, laser-etched "National Rifle Association of America" crest on the walnut buttstock.
