Henry Releasing Special Edition Rifles Commemorating The American Legion

Renowned for manufacturing exceptional firearms, Henry has launched a novel range of rifles to honor The American Legion. The assortment comprises a .22 Golden Boy, a .44 Big Boy, alongside a .357 Mag/.38 Spl Big Boy X. Extraordinarily, the first two rifles showcase carvings that reflect the four pillars of the American Legion - Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation, National Security, Americanism, and Youth. Henry has further taken the step to dedicate part of every rifle's sale to this esteemed organization. The .357 Mag/.38 Spl Big Boy X is specifically exceptional, uniquely donning an embossed 'American Legion' on its stock. A Gunbroker auction that hosts the collection of serial number 1s for the limited-run rifles is also underway.

Henry’s Tribute Edition Rifles to Support The American Legion

As the globally recognized leader in lever-action firearm production, Henry Repeating Arms has expressed immense pleasure in presenting the new array of tribute edition rifles. Proceeds from the sales of these rifles will aid The American Legion, in a bid to enhance the lives of America's veterans and their families, the country's military infrastructure, as well as communities through acts of shared helpfulness. American Legion members, in particular, can purchase the rifles at specially discounted, factory-direct rates. Moreover, members will be pleased to know that each sale contributes back to the American Legion.

Solidifying their commitment towards the partnership, Henry Repeating Arms is also conducting an auction offering collector's set containing the first numbered rifle of each design in the series. All proceeds from this auction, ending on July 24th, at 9:00 p.m. EST, will be donated to The American Legion.

About The American Legion

Legitimized by Congress in 1919, The American Legion remains the largest veterans service organization in the country with a robust membership of over 1.6 million. This organization has been instrumental in enacting the G.I. Bill, thereby extending access to higher education, home ownership, as well as job training to millions of World War II veterans and many more after them. Moreover, its members actively volunteer to guide children and youth, particularly through the Junior Shooting Sports Program. Indeed, the program boasts alumni who have even won Olympic medals in the sport.

The American Legion Tribute Edition rifles are presented in three singular models based on Henry’s most sought-after designs. Each model comes with intricate details that display the organization's four pillars. Visually striking with an engraved nickel-plated receiver cover, topped with 24kt gold, the Golden Boy is chambered for .22 S/L/LR. The Big Boy Brass ups its firepower, chambered in .44 Magnum and .44 Special, it features an engraved receiver sourced from solid hardened brass, the iconic octagon barrel, and genuine American walnut stocks. The final model, the Big Boy X Model, provides maximum adaptability and utility. It features durable synthetic furniture, fiber optic sights, and a threaded barrel. It is chambered for the universally recognized .357 Magnum and .38 Special cartridges. The buttstock is laser-carved with the American Legion emblem.

"Our gratitude towards America’s veterans and organizations dedicated to supporting them is immense," affirms Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. "These rifles are crafted with admiration for their sacrifices. We aim to celebrate the drive and spirit of The American Legion that embodies hope and progress for those who have served this country."
