RICE LAKE, Wis., April 9, 2025 — Henry Repeating Arms, one of America’s leading firearm manufacturers, is building on its legacy of acknowledging its most valued constituencies with the launch of the American Construction Industry Tribute Edition, a new addition to its venerable lineup of collectible Tribue Edition rifles that honors the men, women, and companies who build America from the ground up.
“America runs on the backs of its builders,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “This rifle is our celebration of all the skilled tradespeople who work on everything from blueprints to brick and mortar to shape our city’s skylines, put roofs over our heads, build roads, bridges, and most importantly, the foundation of our lives and future. This new rifle is our way of saying thanks.”
Andy Wickstrom, President of Henry Repeating Arms, said, “We are proud to acknowledge the demanding and dangerous work, which requires a diverse range of skills. From carpenters and plumbers to electricians and engineers to ironworkers and excavators, the construction industry plays a vital role in shaping our communities and creating spaces for growth and progress.”
Built on the award-winning Henry Golden Boy .22 S/L/LR platform, this lever-action rifle, like the rest of Henry’s Tribute Edition rifles, features highly detailed engraved embellishments that pay tribute to some of the country’s most fundamental workforces and constituencies.
The right side of the nickel-plated receiver cover features a 24kt gold-plated “Proud to Build America” plaque, an engraving of the American flag, and a portrait of three construction workers standing proudly in front of steel I-beams. The left side shows a residential framer at work on a rooftop and a tower crane erecting a skyscraper—a nod to the vast scope of the construction trades. Both sides are bordered by a brick motif, symbolizing the industry’s foundational role in America.
The rifle’s genuine American walnut buttstock features a hand-painted yellow construction helmet beside a scroll banner reading “American Construction Tribute,” providing a lasting symbol of pride for those in the trades.
The fully functional work of art is chambered for .22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle. It features a 20″ blued steel octagon barrel, brass buttplate and barrel band, adjustable sights, and the legendarily smooth action Henry firearms are known for.
The American Construction Tribute Edition is available now through licensed Henry Repeating Arms dealers nationwide. MSRP is $1,240.
