Henry Golden Boy Youth 22LR Heirloom Rifle

A Perfect Introduction to America’s Favorite Lever-Action Rifle

The Henry Golden Boy Youth .22 LR Heirloom Rifle is designed to give new shooters the same Henry quality, reliability, and pride of ownership in a more compact, youth-friendly configuration. With its shorter barrel and reduced length of pull, it’s perfectly proportioned for smaller shooters — without sacrificing the smooth lever action and accuracy that define Henry’s Golden Boy series.

Classic Golden Boy Styling in a Compact Design

Built on the same award-winning platform as the full-size Golden Boy, the Youth Edition features a 20-inch octagonal barrel, a brasslite receiver, and a polished American walnut stock that gives it both strength and elegance. Every surface, from the buttplate to the barrel band, reflects Henry’s meticulous craftsmanship and heirloom-level attention to detail.

At just the right size for young shooters, it offers an ideal combination of balance, weight, and accuracy.

Smooth Lever Action for Reliable, Easy Operation

Like its full-sized counterpart, the Youth Golden Boy cycles with Henry’s legendary smoothness. The action is easy to operate, and the tubular magazine holds up to 12 rounds of .22 Long Rifle or 16 rounds of .22 Short, giving young marksmen plenty of shooting time between reloads.

The single-stage trigger provides a clean break for accurate shooting, while the buttery lever throw helps build proper technique and confidence in handling a firearm.

Safe, Accurate, and Fun for Youth Training

The Golden Boy Youth .22 LR delivers consistent accuracy and manageable recoil, making it ideal for target practice, plinking, and learning basic marksmanship. The shorter barrel length and lighter frame help ensure control and comfort, while the natural fit of the American walnut stock encourages good shooting posture.

Henry’s commitment to safety, precision machining, and flawless cycling ensures that this rifle is as dependable as it is enjoyable to shoot.

Built for the Next Generation — Made in the USA

Every Henry Golden Boy Youth Rifle is 100% made in the United States by skilled craftsmen who understand what it means to make a family heirloom. Built to the same high standards as all Henry firearms, it’s a rifle that can teach the next generation today and be proudly passed down tomorrow.
