At SHOT Show 2025, Henry’s Special Product Division (SPD) dropped a sneak peek of what they are calling the “ultimate suppressor host.” They\u2019re jumping into the future showcasing this new line of modernized rifles from their Classic Lever series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This includes their Big Boy<\/a> and Large Frame Lever Action Rifles, but with a twist: carbon fiber barrels and upgraded furniture that will catch the eye of any shooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What and Why?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To keep things straight, the SPD is a new product division within Henry that will be producing modernized firearms. Their first launch will be this “ultimate suppressor host” that we are currently discussing, but this is not the official title of this modernized rifle line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carbon fiber barrels on these rifles are the real stars of the show. By shaving off some weight from the front of the rifle, Henry has created a perfect balance between the added weight and length of a suppressor, making the rifle feel more stable and easier to handle than if you retained a heavy steel barrel and further weighed it down with a suppressor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The design makes shooting with a suppressor more comfortable and, let\u2019s face it, way cooler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suppressors provide the only proven method of effective hearing protection, so I\u2019m glad Henry is embracing a product line designed with them in mind.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Known Details Of The First Rifles From The SPD<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At the launch of the SPD, you\u2019ll see the carbon fiber-barreled rifles available in the same caliber options as the aforementioned Big Boy and Large Frame Lever Action Rifles. These calibers include .357, .44 Mag, .30-30, .45-70, and .45 Colt<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are solid choices for their initial launch due to their popularity and capability. But here\u2019s the thing: while they\u2019re showing off these prototypes, there\u2019s still a lot we don\u2019t know yet about the product line. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The price? It\u2019s still up in the air, but I got the impression from talking to a Henry rep that we\u2019re looking at something between $1,600 and $2,000 MSRP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
