The Henry Single Shot (brand part no. H015-12) brings Henry’s break-top action to a full-size 12 gauge field gun. Its 28-inch steel barrel comes with a modified choke for well-rounded patterns at typical field distances, and a bead front sight keeps aiming fast and instinctive. The rebounding hammer design adds a layer of mechanical protection to the classic exposed-hammer action, blocking the firing pin unless the trigger is deliberately pulled. Paired with a genuine walnut stock, it’s a straightforward, no-frills 12 gauge for hunters who want a dependable single-barrel gun without the weight or cost of a repeater.
