Henry H1 Bandit Rifle: Compact Repeating Action in .22 Caliber

The Henry H1 Bandit Rifle represents a modern take on the classic lever-action platform, engineered for portability and versatility. Chambered in both .22 S/L/LR and .22 Magnum, this model combines the trusted craftsmanship of Henry Repeating Arms with a compact 12.5-inch barrel profile. As a purpose-built survival and trail rifle, the Henry H1 Bandit rifle delivers reliable cycling across multiple rimfire cartridges without compromising on the smooth lever action that defines the Henry name.

Overview

The Henry H1 Bandit rifle is a lightweight, takedown-style lever action designed for backcountry carry, truck storage, and recreational shooting. With an overall length of just over 30 inches and a weight under five pounds, this rifle prioritizes maneuverability while maintaining the accuracy expected from a Henry Repeating Arms product. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, and the rifle accepts standard .22 caliber optics bases. The H1 Bandit feeds from a tubular magazine with a 10-round capacity in .22 LR and 11-round capacity in .22 Magnum, providing ample firepower in a compact package.

Features & Specs

The Henry H1 Bandit rifle is built around a machined steel receiver and a brass bead front sight paired with a dovetail rear sight. The American walnut stock features a straight grip and a rubber buttpad to reduce felt recoil. The 12.5-inch round barrel is threaded 1/2×28 for suppressor compatibility, and the rifle includes a thread protector. The lever action cycles quickly, allowing for rapid follow-up shots while maintaining positive cartridge extraction.
