Henry Repeating Arms Announces Launch of the Silver Anniversary Rifle
RICE LAKE, Wis., Oct. 11, 2022 – Henry Repeating Arms, one of the country’s leading firearm manufacturers, is excited to announce a release date and time for the launch of their much-anticipated Henry Golden Boy “Silver Anniversary” Edition rifle. Starting at noon Eastern on Thursday, Oct. 13, the limited-edition rifles will be available exclusively through Henry Repeating Arms’ website while supplies last. The company is presenting all proceeds from selling these rifles to various foundations and organizations supported by the charitable branch of Henry Repeating Arms called Guns For Great Causes.
Production is limited to 1,000 units, and 100% of the proceeds from each sale will raise a total of $1,000,000 for donation to children’s hospitals, military veterans and first responders’ organizations, shooting sports, hunting heritage, and wildlife conservation advocates. Anthony Imperato, Henry Repeating Arms CEO and Founder has already begun dispersing portions of the Silver Anniversary pledge to Tunnel to Towers Foundation, American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and Shadow Warriors Project, with the entire pledge scheduled to be distributed by March 2023.
“Thanks to the hard work of more than 600 employees and the support of millions of customers worldwide, we are in the fortunate position of being able to help the causes that we believe in,” said Imperato. “This rifle is the culmination of our 25th-anniversary celebrations, and it’s all about giving back. I am extremely proud of what our Guns for Great Causes endeavors have accomplished in these two-plus decades.
Each Henry Golden Boy “Silver Anniversary” edition rifle will feature near-identical specifications to the original Golden Boy, including its signature octagonal barrel, but will trade in its high-polish gold finish and features a nickel-plated receiver cover, barrel band, butt plate, as well as an inlaid 25th Anniversary medallion, and silver anniversary engraved upper tang. Each Silver Anniversary rifle will cost $1,000 and only 1,000 of these unique rifles will be made with the proceeds going to benefit various charities. If you’re interested in picking one of these up for your collection, these rifles will be available for purchase directly from the Henry website starting October 13th, 2022 at 12:00pm Eastern.
