Henry Repeating Arms is introducing the HUSH Series. This new line of suppressor-optimized lever-action rifles is the first release from the company’s Special Products Division (SPD), a new R&D initiative focused on forward-thinking firearms for American gun owners. The HUSH is a purpose-built platform meant to deliver the optimal solution for suppressed shooting and hunting without compromising weight and balance.
Lever-action rifles have long been celebrated for their inherent balance, reliability, fast follow-up shots and more recently, their innate usefulness when used with a suppressor due to the closed action. The HUSH Series builds on those strengths by reducing the weight forward of the receiver, ensuring the rifle’s natural point of balance is preserved even with a suppressor mounted. These refinements define Henry’s Ultimate Suppressor Host (HUSH), offering a quieter solution for modern hunters and shooting enthusiasts.
“Suppressor use is growing rapidly, and for good reason,” said Andy Wickstrom, president of Henry Repeating Arms. “It protects hearing, minimizes recoil, reduces game spooking and improves the overall experience when out at the range. With the SPD’s HUSH Series, we deliver the best possible platform for running suppressed without compromise.
Henry Rifles HUSH Series Features:
- Match-grade 416R stainless steel barrel encased in a tension-wrapped, carbon-fiber sleeve, manufactured in partnership with BSF Barrels
- Lightweight, skeletonized aluminum forearm featuring M-Lok accessory slots designed in collaboration with TAPCO
- Checkered, lightweight, matte-dark-gray American hardwood laminate stock with a rubber recoil pad.

“With the HUSH Series, our engineering team started with a clean slate and a clear objective: design the ideal suppressor host from the ground up,” said Nick Chappell, vice president of engineering at Henry Repeating Arms. “Every design decision, from the carbon fiber tension-wrapped barrel to the aluminum forearm and forged carbon optics rail, was made to reduce weight, enhance balance, and maximize performance. This is the most technically advanced lever-action ever produced, and we’re just getting started.”
The HUSH Series is available in five different calibers: .45 Colt, .357 Mag./.38 Spl, .44 Mag./.44 Spl, .30-30 Win. and .45-70 Gov’t. The MSRP for each model is $1,999.
