Henry Today
AboutHenry Repeating Arms is one of America’s leading firearms manufacturers and the world leader in the lever action category. The goal hasn’t changed since the first Henry shipped in 1997: build classic American firearms with an action so smooth that owners write to tell us about it, and price them so everyone can own one. Our motto is “Made in America, or Not Made at All.” It is a rule we build by, and the roll mark on every Henry barrel holds us to it: Made in USA.

Work At Henry
History
Louis and Anthony Imperato started Henry Repeating Arms in Brooklyn, New York, in 1996. Our first model was the H1 Classic Lever Action .22, and the first rifles shipped in March 1997. In 2027, we mark 30 years since that first shipment.
The company is named after Benjamin Tyler Henry, who invented the first successful repeating rifle in 1860. Henry Repeating Arms has no affiliation with or lineage to B. Tyler Henry or the New Haven Arms Company, which built the original Henry rifle from 1862 to 1864. Anthony Imperato secured the Henry trademark in 1996. Today we build the New Original Henry, a reproduction of the 1860 rifle, in Wisconsin.

Charitable Endeavors
Guns For Great Causes is Henry’s charitable program, and pediatric cancer comes first. It provides direct financial help to families with a sick child and makes donations to children’s cancer hospitals.
The program also supports veterans, law enforcement, and first responder organizations, especially those helping the injured and the families of those killed in the line of duty. Other beneficiaries include wildlife conservation, shooting sports, firearm safety education, and Second Amendment advocacy.
100% of Guns For Great Causes firearm sales are donated. Since its founding, Henry has donated more than $4 million through the program.
