Bringing Quality Back Into The One-Shot Field Gun...

Sharing the same action as Henry's single-shot rifle, this new brass break-top shotgun in 20 gauge features the same rebounding external hammer and dual-direction pivoting locking lever setup that blocks hammer contact with the firing pin unless the trigger’s pulled, and the same interlock system prevents opening the action with the hammer cocked, or closing it with the hammer cocked, as additional safety measures.

Like the rifle, there’s no manual safety on these shotguns, and they wear American walnut with a smooth brass buttplate on the brightly polished brass-frame. The barrel is black matte finished, carrying a straight English-style wrist. Unlike the rifle, though, shells are fully ejected on opening the action for a quick follow-up shot if needed, not just partially extracted. Brass beads are standard, barrel length is 26" with a 14” length of pull. Henry has done their best to keep weights down for field carry, and one thing they want to emphasize is that these shotguns are not intended to be budget entries- Henry's standards are high and you can count on them for the long run.

Henry knows as well as you do, that one choke does not fit all hunters therefore it has removable chokes so you can adapt your shotgun choke and thus alter its pattern and range so your shotgun can be used effectively in a wide variety of hunting and/or shooting situations. The shotgun ships with a Modified Choke using Rem-Choke style threads which delivers a versatile shooting pattern for shooting at 25-45 yards, ideal for squirrels, rabbits, pigeons, doves, partridges, grouse, pheasant and wild flushing quail at medium range. 

Whether you like the simple operation, the reliable action, the nostalgia factor of hunting with a one-shot shotgun, or the uncomplicated first-gun introduction for a new shotgunner, Henry has built this one for a wide audience. It will put on a show you’ll enjoy for years to come.
