Henry's classic lever-action .22 rifle chambered for .22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle ammunition. Features an 18.5-inch blued barrel, walnut furniture, and reliable Henry quality in a nimble, affordable package.
The Henry Bandit represents everything that makes .22 rifles enduring favorites among shooters of all skill levels. This is a rifle that teaches fundamentals without flinching, that brings small game to the table, and that simply never wears out its welcome.
The Bandit employs Henry's time-tested lever-action mechanism, a design refined over generations. The 18.5-inch barrel strikes an excellent balance between velocity and maneuverability—short enough to handle in brush or from a vehicle, long enough to wring proper performance from rimfire ammunition.
This rifle chambers .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle ammunition. You can load any of these three interchangeably without adjustment. This flexibility means you can select ammunition based on your needs: lighter recoil for younger shooters or small game, or full-power Long Rifle loads for distance and energy.
This rifle excels as a first rifle, a training platform, or a trusted companion for plinking and small game hunting. The lever action demands deliberate shooting—each round requires a conscious action, building discipline and marksmanship skills. The modest recoil and report make it suitable for younger shooters and those new to firearms.
Henry's reputation for quality and durability means this rifle will serve reliably for decades with minimal maintenance.
