What’s Included
- Henry Golden Boy .22 WMR lever-action rifle (Model H004M)
The rifle uses a 20.5 inch octagon blued steel barrel and a 12-round tubular magazine with a removable inner tube, giving the .22 Magnum Golden Boy its period-correct look and practical loading system. The 1:16 twist is appropriate for common .22 WMR bullet weights.
Its receiver cover and buttplate wear Henry's Brasslite finish, delivering the Golden Boy's signature brass-colored highlights. The barrel, just forward of the receiver, is roll-marked HENRY REPEATING ARMS – BAYONNE, NJ – MADE IN USA. The Brasslite receiver cover sides are unmarked, with MODEL H004M and serial GB205947M etched on the underside.
American walnut furniture includes a straight-grip stock and matching forearm for a traditional lever-gun feel. Sight alignment is straightforward with an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear and a brass-bead front, a setup well-suited to rimfire field and range work.
Handling features include a standard-size lever loop, an exposed hammer with a checkered spur, and a 1/4-cock hammer notch. The rifle measures 39 inches overall, has a 14.0 inch length of pull, and weighs 6.75 lb, balancing comfortably for offhand shooting.
