About the Henry the Spirit of ’76 Semiquincentennial Edition

Commemorating 250 years of American independence, the Henry The Spirit of ’76 Semiquincentennial Edition is a limited-run rifle that honors the nation’s founding with precision craftsmanship and historical detail. Chambered in the classic .44-40 WCF, this lever-action rifle from Henry Repeating Arms blends heritage design with field-ready performance. Each piece is individually serialized, making it a collectible for shooters and historians alike.

Overview

The Henry The Spirit of ’76 Semiquincentennial Edition is a factory-embellished rifle featuring a polished blued receiver, 20-inch octagonal barrel, and American walnut stock with a satin finish. The receiver is laser-engraved with patriotic scrollwork and the “Spirit of ’76” motif, including a drummer and fifer scene. The .44-40 WCF caliber offers manageable recoil, flat trajectory at typical hunting ranges, and compatibility with cowboy action shooting loads. This is a functional firearm designed for range use, hunting, and display.

Features & Specs

• Barrel: 20-inch octagonal steel barrel with a 1:36 twist rate, drilled and tapped for scope mounting (mounts not included).
• Capacity: 10-round tubular magazine, allowing quick follow-up shots without reloading.

• Stock: Straight-grip American walnut with cut checkering at wrist and forend, satin lacquer finish; includes a black rubber buttpad for recoil dampening.

• Length: 38.5 inches overall, 7.2 pounds unloaded – balanced for off-hand shooting.

Who It’s For

This rifle suits three primary buyers: collectors seeking a numbered edition from Henry’s semiquincentennial series, cowboy action shooters who prefer the .44-40 WCF for its period authenticity, and hunters wanting a light, reliable lever gun for brush country or whitetail. It is also appropriate for history enthusiasts who appreciate the 1776-era engraving and the limited production run. If you value American-made firearms with documented provenance, the Henry The Spirit of ’76 Semiquincentennial Edition delivers without unnecessary ornamentation.
