The single-shot platform remains a cornerstone for disciplined marksmanship and uncomplicated ownership. A properly configured single-shot shotgun offers predictable recoil, straightforward maintenance, and a compact profile for precision work in the field or on the range.

HENRY SINGLE SHOT SHOTGUN

Design and construction

The HENRY SINGLE SHOT SHOTGUN is offered in two distinct finishes: a matte steel frame or a polished hardened brass frame, each matched to American walnut furniture. The action is a break-action single shot with a round blued steel barrel measuring 26 inches, and the shotgun is drilled and tapped for scope mounts for those who prefer optics over iron sights. Specifications include 20 GA, capacity 1, weight 6.62 lbs, and an overall length of 41.5 inches.

Sights and sighting options

Iron sighting is handled by an adjustable folding leaf rear and a brass bead front sight—an effective, low-tech aiming solution for quick acquisition and traditional sight picture. Because the receiver is drilled and tapped, shooters can install a low-profile scope or red dot to suit precise target work or longer-range patterning.

Ergonomics and variants

Ergonomics differ between the brass and steel variants. The brass-frame model features a straight English wrist and a brass buttplate that preserves a classic profile and swing. The steel-frame model offers a curved pistol grip and a rubber recoil pad, which reduces perceived recoil and improves follow-up comfort for shooters sensitive to impulse. Both variants use American walnut stocks that balance durability and aesthetics.

Applications for a 20 GA single shot

The 20 GA chassis is an excellent choice for precision clay work, small-game hunting, and guided training where reduced recoil and lighter weight aid consistency. With its single-shot simplicity and a weight of just over 6.6 lbs, the HENRY SINGLE SHOT SHOTGUN is easy to carry for extended periods while delivering predictable swing dynamics and pointability.

Buying considerations

At a listed price of $526.99, the HENRY SINGLE SHOT SHOTGUN positions itself as a value-forward option for shooters seeking heritage styling with modern convenience (drilled and tapped receiver, scope-ready). Decide whether you prefer the classic brass frame or the steel frame with a rubber pad based on carry weight, balance, and aesthetic preference.
