Henry Silver Eagle .22 Cal Engraved Lever-Action Rifle with Large Loop
The Henry Silver Eagle .22 lever-action rifle brings together smooth rimfire shooting with elegant engraving and a large-loop lever built for real-world handling. It’s a functional heirloom — American walnut, engraved receiver, blued barrel — made to shoot as well as it looks.
Classic handling with modern fit
In the hands, the Silver Eagle feels balanced and quick to mount. The large loop provides confident cycling even with gloves, and it keeps the rifle’s classic lines intact. It shoulders naturally and points easily for small game or range work. The .22 rimfire chambering makes it friendly for all-day use, whether for target practice or pest control.
Action, trigger, and cycling
Built on Henry’s proven rimfire lever platform, this rifle cycles clean and smooth. The trigger is straightforward — crisp enough for precision, forgiving enough for casual shooting. The action locks up tight, giving consistent ejection and solid reliability. It’s an easy rifle to trust for new shooters and experienced hands alike.
Build quality and engraving
The Silver Eagle edition features a polished receiver with detailed engraving that honors Henry’s traditional aesthetic. The fit between walnut and metal is tight, and the blued barrel contrasts beautifully with the brass and steel details. It’s an heirloom-level rifle meant to earn its patina, not hide it.
Performance and reliability
Feed it good-quality .22 LR or .22 Short rounds and it runs smooth. The tubular magazine makes loading simple and reliable. With proper maintenance — a light bore cleaning and occasional oiling — the Silver Eagle will stay smooth for generations. It’s a range companion, a small-game tool, and a showpiece all in one.
Practical applications
This rifle is ideal for plinking, range training, and small-game hunting. The .22 caliber keeps ammo affordable and recoil negligible, while the engraved finish and walnut furniture make it something you’ll want to keep on the rack long after the range day ends.
