BAYONNE, N.J., Nov. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Henry Repeating
Arms recently unveiled their Texas Tribute Edition rifle with a
surprise appearance at the Texas Motor Speedway, where it was
presented to NASCAR Cup Series driver Kevin
Harvick for his pole qualifying win before the AAA Texas
500. Now available nationwide, the new rifle is the latest addition
to Henry's diverse Tribute Edition product line and the only
edition dedicated to a specific state.
Anthony Imperato, President, and
Owner of Henry Repeating Arms, explains, "The idea of making a
special gun for Texas is something
that we've been working at for quite some time, and we have looked
at so many different designs in the process." Imperato continues,
"Texas loves guns, and we wanted
to make sure that this rifle captures that unique Texas magic with a look that no one has ever
seen before on a Henry. I think we nailed it."
The Henry Texas Tribute Edition is a .22 S/L/LR caliber lever
action rifle built on Henry's Golden Boy platform, which features a
20" blued steel octagon barrel, a Brasslite receiver cover, a brass
buttplate and barrel band, and fully adjustable sights. Most
notably, the wood furniture is finished with a deep black stain to
provide a stark contrast to the gold highlights throughout the gun.
Both sides of the rifle are studded with inlaid metal 5-pointed
stars, with 4 on the right side of the buttstock, and a lone star
on the right side of the buttstock. The forestock is further
embellished with the word "TEXAS"
engraved in a classic Western typeface and filled by hand with gold
paint. The buttstock engraving depicts the state of Texas filled with a "Lone Star Flag" motif,
which is also hand-painted in gold.
The new Texas Tribute Edition rifle has a manufacturer's
suggested retail price of $960. For
