Design and materials

The HENRY SINGLE SHOT SHOTGUN is offered in two distinct finishes: matte blued steel or polished hardened brass. Both are built on a break-action round barrel frame with American walnut stock and brass bead sights up front paired with an adjustable folding leaf rear sight—features that favor fast target acquisition and consistent sight picture at close to moderate ranges.

Stock and ergonomics

Henry provides two stock configurations to suit different shooters. Brass-frame variants come with a straight English wrist and a brass buttplate, delivering a classic feel and balanced swing. Steel-frame variants have a curved pistol-grip and a rubber recoil pad for improved purchase and softening of felt recoil. At 6.83 lbs overall and 37″ in length, this 12GA single-shot balances muzzle control and portability.

Barrel, sights, and optics

The 28″ round blued steel barrel and simple sighting system make this shotgun straightforward to index. The inclusion of an adjustable folding leaf rear sight allows for zeroing at varying ranges, while the brass bead front promotes quick aiming from low-ready. For shooters who prefer optics, the receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts, enabling a red dot or low-power scope for defensive or patterning use.

Performance and applications

Chambered in 12GA with a single-round capacity, this platform is ideal for deliberate, well-placed shots—home defense, farmstead protection, and range training where follow-up shots are pre-planned. The break-action reliability is a tactical advantage for users who prioritize a fail-safe mechanism without a complex action to maintain.

Price is positioned at $624.99, reflecting quality American walnut furniture and choice material finishes from a respected maker like Henry. The Single Shot sits squarely in the Single Shot category for buyers seeking a heritage design with modern fit and finish. View product details and pricing
