Description:
Guns Listing ID: 676539



The Henry Repeating Arms H004 is better known as the “Golden Boy," a classic American lever-action rifle chambered in .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 LR. It is one of Henry’s most recognizable rifles thanks to its polished brass-colored receiver, octagon barrel, and traditional Old West styling. The H004 has become extremely popular for plinking, small game hunting, and collectors who appreciate classic lever guns.

A major reason shooters like the Golden Boy is its exceptionally smooth lever action and attractive finish. Many owners describe it as one of the most enjoyable .22 rifles to shoot, especially for new shooters and casual range use. Reddit users frequently praise the rifle’s smooth cycling, accuracy, and overall quality feel.

Typical features include:

American walnut stock
Brasslite receiver cover
20-inch octagon barrel
Adjustable buckhorn rear sight
Tubular magazine
Lever-action operation
Capacity of about 16 rounds of .22 LR

The rifle weighs roughly 6.75 pounds and balances well for offhand shooting. Its heavier octagon barrel helps reduce movement and gives the rifle a classic frontier appearance. Henry currently lists the standard H004 Golden Boy MSRP around $648 as of recent pricing sheets.

Common positives:

Extremely smooth action
Reliable with many .22 loads
Excellent fit and finish
Classic appearance
Great beginner or family rifle

Common negatives:

Tube-loading system is slower than side-loading gates
Brasslite finish scratches easier than steel
Heavier than some standard .22 rifles

The H004 remains one of the best-selling modern lever-action rimfire rifles and is often compared with the Ruger 10/22, Marlin lever guns, and Winchester rimfire lever actions. If you want, I can also help with:
