The Henry Single Shot Compact (brand part no. H015Y20) pairs 20 gauge chambering with a scaled-down stock and length of pull for younger or smaller-framed shooters. Its 26-inch barrel is finished in blued steel and comes with a modified choke for a well-rounded pattern, while a simple bead sight keeps the fundamentals of aiming straightforward. A hammer-block safety adds mechanical protection to the classic exposed-hammer break-top design, and the compact walnut stock keeps handling manageable as a new shooter builds confidence. It’s a purpose-built youth gun for introducing hunters to 20 gauge wingshooting or small-game hunting.
