When you need a lightweight, packable rifle that doesn’t compromise on performance, the Henry H1 Bandit Rifle stands out as a practical choice for shooters who value portability and reliability. Chambered in both .22 S/L/LR and .22 Magnum, this little lever-action is a joy to carry and a pleasure to shoot. Whether you’re plinking at the range, hunting small game, or keeping a trusty companion in your truck or backpack, the Henry H1 Bandit Rifle delivers the classic Henry quality you expect in a compact, modern package.

Overview

Henry Repeating Arms has long been known for crafting heirloom-quality firearms, and the Henry H1 Bandit Rifle continues that tradition with a twist. This isn’t your grandfather’s full-length lever gun—it’s a short, handy carbine with a 12.5-inch barrel and an overall length that makes it incredibly easy to stow and deploy. The Henry H1 Bandit Rifle feeds both .22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle cartridges interchangeably, or you can opt for the .22 Magnum version for added punch. The smooth action, classic American walnut stock, and blued steel finish give it a timeless look, while the compact dimensions make it ideal for modern shooters who need a go-anywhere rifle.

Features & Specs

Let’s get into the details that make the Henry H1 Bandit Rifle a standout in its category. Everything from the action to the sights is designed with practical, hands-on use in mind.

• Caliber Options: Available in .22 S/L/LR (allowing you to shoot inexpensive .22 Shorts or standard .22 LR) and .22 Magnum for higher velocity and energy. Both versions feed reliably through the classic side gate and tubular magazine.
• Compact Design: The 12.5-inch barrel and shortened magazine tube reduce overall length to just over 31 inches, making the Henry H1 Bandit Rifle easy to pack in a scabbard, backpack, or vehicle without sacrificing accuracy.
• Authentic Lever Action: Henry’s signature smooth cycling lever action is retained here, with a brass bead front sight and a fully adjustable rear sight for quick target acquisition. The action is crisp and intuitive, perfect for fast follow-up shots.

Who It’s For

The Henry H1 Bandit Rifle is built for shooters who want a rifle that disappears when you’re carrying it but performs when you need it. It’s a natural fit for hikers, campers, and overlanders who need a lightweight, reliable firearm for small game or general defense against critters. It’s also a fantastic choice for new shooters or those with smaller frames, as the reduced size and low recoil make it easy to handle. If you’re a collector of lever-action rifles, the Henry H1 Bandit Rifle offers a unique, modern take on a classic design that’s hard to resist. And for the experienced marksman who wants a fun, handy plinker that won’t break the bank on ammunition, this rifle checks all the boxes.
