Henry Axe Shotgun 410 Gauge 15.14" Barrel Brass Receiver American Walnut Grip

The Lever Action Axe .410 is a scabbard and shoot again and again shotgun. It has the same 5-round capacity of 2 shells as its larger Lever Action .410 Shotgun counterparts, but the addition of a loading gate means that you can keep that capacity topped off at all times without needing to remove a tube magazine. Another practical advantage is its size. With a barrel length of just under 16 and an overall length of just over 26 the Axe can be stored in far more places than your average long gun. The barrel is finished off with a brass bead front sight and invector style threads that are fitted with a removable full choke right out of the box. The axe handle pistol grip gives the firearm its name and is engraved on the bottom with the iconic Henry Cowboy logo for that unmistakable touch of Henry class.

The 410 Gauge (410 Bore) shotgun cartridge is the only shotshell named by caliber (diameter) rather than the old "gauge" designation of round balls to the pound. Introduced in the U.S. in the early 1900s the 410 Gauge is the smallest shotshell in common use, offered in 2.5-inch loads with a 1/2-ounce payload and 3-inch loads with 3/4-ounce payloads. Most modern shotguns are chambered for 3-inch shells, but the longer shells cannot be used in guns with 2.5-inch chambers. 410 Gauge is a standard event in formal American Skeet competition. Because of its light recoil the 410 Gauge is often chosen as a "starter" shotgun for youngsters, but it is not an ideal choice; the light payload sharply limits range, effectiveness, and hitting ability, frustrating the efforts of generations of youngsters--and 410 slug loads are very marginal for deer. In the right hands at close range the 410 gauge is effective on upland game, but at its best it is a choice for experienced expert shotgunners. — Craig Boddington
