he H1 Classic Rifle & Carbine is the rifle that introduced more shooters to lever actions than any other, and for decades it has remained the benchmark for what a great .22 rifle should be.

At the heart of the H1 Classic is its exceptionally smooth lever action. The action cycles effortlessly, so smooth that many first-time shooters remark they can hardly believe there are internal parts at work. That smoothness, combined with the rifle’s natural balance and light weight, makes it easy and enjoyable to shoot for long sessions at the range or in the field.

The H1 Classic family is offered in Rifle and Carbine configurations, as well as .22 Short/Long/Long Rifle and .22 Magnum chamberings.

Features include side ejection, an adjustable rear sight, a hooded front sight, and a 3/8″ grooved receiver for easy scope mounting. The blued steel barrel is machined with precision rifling for excellent accuracy, and the tubular magazine offers generous capacity making the H1 a reliable and fun alternative to a semi-automatic .22.
