Design and construction

The HENRY HO18-410R arrives described as RIFLE FIREARM HENRY MFG H018-410R, #FTLR16617, 410 GAUGE, LEVER; IN BLACK CASE — that tells you the essentials up front. This lever-action platform offers the classic, fast-handling geometry familiar to shooters who prioritize quick follow-up shots without the bulk of modern tactical rifles. The included black case is a practical touch for transport and secure storage.

Why the 410 gauge works here

At $824.99, this HENRY model leverages the 410 gauge’s advantages: manageable recoil, a compact footprint, and effective short-range performance. While the 410 isn’t a long-range cartridge, it excels in close-quarters defense and birdshot training drills where controllability and quick target reacquisition are paramount. For instructors and homeowners looking for a forgiving pattern and easy handling, the 410 gauge in a lever-action format is an excellent compromise.

Practical applications

On the range, expect minimal muzzle rise and fast return-to-target. In defensive contexts, the combination of a grab-and-rackable lever plus the 410’s low recoil can make rapid, accurate follow-up shots more accessible to a wider range of shooters. The HENRY HO18-410R is a rifle you can confidently train with and store securely in its black case.

Ergonomics, handling, and maintenance

Lever actions are celebrated for their natural pointing and simple manual of arms. The HO18-410R keeps controls intuitive: a smooth lever throw, a straightforward loading process, and uncomplicated takedown for routine cleaning. We recommend familiarizing yourself with safe loading and unloading drills specific to lever-action systems and keeping a basic maintenance kit on hand to preserve reliability.

Field considerations and training tips

Drill transitions from low-ready to firing position, and practice smooth lever cycling under stress drills. The 410 gauge rewards deliberate, well-aimed inputs rather than spray-and-pray tactics. For structured training, use target loads at the range and reserve defensive loads for controlled scenarios, always following local laws and safe storage practices.

For those who want a compact, historically rooted platform that performs well for training and close-range defense, the HENRY HO18-410R is a focused choice.
