Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Some rifles are built to sit in a rack and get grabbed on the way out the door. This one gets noticed before it ever leaves the house. The Henry Golden Boy American Eagle takes the proven Golden Boy platform and dresses it up as a tribute to the bald eagle, with an ivory-colored American walnut stock that stands apart from anything else in Henry's lineup. Getting that finish right is no small trick. Henry layers primer and ivory color over the walnut, sanding between coats so the grain still shows through and the wood keeps a natural look instead of a painted one.
The buttstock carries deep checkering at the wrist that flows into a leafy vine pattern framing a bald eagle's head, with AMERICAN EAGLE cut in script below it. The forearm gets the same treatment, checkered and scrolled around the Henry name, then the whole works is sealed with a fixative so the color and detail stay put. Set against the polished nickel-plated receiver cover, buttplate, and barrel band, plus a deeply blued 20 inch octagon barrel, the contrast between ivory, silver, and blue steel is hard to look away from.
Underneath the dress-up, this is still the same rimfire lever gun folks have trusted for years. The action cycles slick right out of the box, and the tube magazine holds 16 rounds of .22 LR or 21 rounds of .22 Short, with .22 Long in the mix too. A fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with diamond insert pairs with a brass bead up front, a classic setup that works great for plinking, small game, and casual target work. At 6.75 pounds with a 38.5 inch overall length, it swings and shoulders like a proper full-size rifle without wearing you out.
Plenty of people buy this one as a collection piece or a gift, and it fits that role perfectly. But it would be a shame not to run a few hundred rounds through it, because it shoots every bit as well as it looks.
Neither, exactly. It starts as genuine American walnut, then Henry applies layers of primer and ivory color, sanding between each coat so the wood grain still shows through. After the engraving is cut, the stock gets a protective fixative to lock in the color and detail. The result looks like ivory but has the warmth and feel of real walnut underneath.
Yes, it handles all three interchangeably thanks to the tubular magazine and lever action. Capacity changes with the round, holding 16 rounds of .22 LR or 21 rounds of .22 Short. That flexibility makes it a fun choice for quiet backyard plinking with Shorts and regular range work with LR.
Both, really. It is built on the same Golden Boy platform Henry sells as a working rimfire, so the action, barrel, and sights are all made for real shooting. Plenty of owners buy it as a display or gift piece, but the smooth lever and 20 inch octagon barrel deliver solid accuracy if you put rounds through it.
It wears a classic setup: a brass bead front sight paired with a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear with a diamond insert. That combination is quick to pick up and easy to fine tune for your preferred ammo and distance. It suits the traditional character of the rifle well.
