Henry H17 Big Boy Deadeye Handgun .357 Mag/.38 Spl 6rd Capacity 4" Blued Barrel Walnut Gunfighter Grip
Henry Repeating Arms
The Henry H16 Golden Boy Deadeye is a .22 S/L/LR revolver built for shooters who value precision, reliability, and timeless American craftsmanship. With its 4-inch blued barrel, traditional double-action trigger, and walnut Gunfighter grip, this handgun splits the difference between a classic target pistol and a capable small-game or plinking tool. The .22 rimfire is forgiving to shoot, easy on ammo costs, and perfect for honing fundamentals at the range or in the field.
What sets the Deadeye apart is attention to detail that honors Henry's legacy while keeping the gun practical. The polished blued steel receiver and American walnut grip aren't just pretty—they're durable and ergonomic. The fully adjustable rear sight and ramped fiber-bead front sight let you dial in your shot, while the transfer bar safety keeps the gun safe during carry and handling. At 37 ounces and 9.5 inches overall, it's compact enough for consistent control without sacrificing sight radius or sight picture.
This is a gun for the shooter who wants a single revolver that works at the range, in small-game country, or as a reliable backup. The 10-round capacity in .22 S/L/LR gives you flexibility—cycle shorts, longs, or long rifles without modification. Whether you're training, collecting, or just looking for a well-made .22 that won't let you down, the Henry Deadeye delivers straightforward, proven performance.
