Two rifles commemorating the 250th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, on July 4, 1776. A price chosen for the year, not the market, so each tribute reaches the widest circle of collectors.
Some anniversaries come once in a lifetime. The 250th is one of them, and it deserved a rifle a family could actually own.
We chose two very different Henrys on purpose. The Golden Boy Silver is one of the most beloved and fairly priced rifles Henry makes, so the first edition could reach as many collectors as possible at a price tied to the year, 1776. The New Original .44-40 is the 1860 design reborn, the rifle that started the legend, so the second edition could honor the colonies one by one. Together they tell the story of where the country began and the rifle that helped settle it.
We design and release commemorative rifles throughout the year. Here are two more worth knowing.
A field-ready Long Ranger engraved for the hunter, with whitetail scenes in gold across the receiver. A favorite for retirements and milestone seasons.
A seasonal release we issue in small numbers each year, engraved to mark the holiday and ready to become a gift a family keeps for generations.
