RICE LAKE, Wis. – January 2, 2025 — Henry Repeating Arms, the industry leader in lever-action rifles, is ushering in a new era with the launch of the Lever Action Supreme Rifle (LASR). This groundbreaking firearm sets new standards for quality, performance, and precision for the time-honored platform. Available in .223 Rem/5.56 NATO and .300 Blackout, the LASR represents the culmination of over 150 years of lever-action evolution and Henry’s exploration of cutting-edge manufacturing technology and techniques.
“The Lever Action Supreme Rifle is a testament to our commitment to innovation and pushing boundaries while preserving the soul of the platform that brought us to the dance,” said Andy Wickstrom, President of Henry Repeating Arms. “With several patent-pending advancements on board, we’ve created a rifle that propels the lever action into the future.”
Key features include:
- Supremely Accurate: The free-floated blued steel barrel is fully capable of sub-MOA accuracy with the right conditions and cartridge selection, and configurations are optimized for each caliber: an 18” barrel for the .223 Rem/5.56 NATO and a 16.5” barrel for the .300 BLK.
- Supremely Smooth: The quad bar linkage and slider crank mechanism at the heart of the action sets a new standard for out-of-the-box lever-action smoothness.
- Supremely Adaptable: A match-grade 4-pound adjustable trigger, a patent-pending windage and elevation adjustable trapezoidal rear sight, and ambidextrous controls ensure maximum control and comfort.
- Supremely Built: Crafted in Rice Lake, Wisconsin, with premium materials, including genuine American Walnut stocks and aerospace-grade aluminum receivers using the latest manufacturing technology.
At its core, the Supreme boasts a quad-bar linkage and slider crank mechanism to drive the bolt and cycle rounds from the detachable box magazine. An internal hammer design keeps out dust, dirt, and debris to maintain reliability in harsh conditions. The six-lug rotating bolt face provides positive lockup and, paired with the blued steel free-floated barrel, exceptional accuracy. Out of the box, the Supreme ships with a 10-round Magpul® PMAG® and a 5-round capacity limiter for compliance with hunting regulations. Using a box magazine eliminates the bullet restrictions inherent to traditional tube magazines, so over time, the platform will yield additional calibers never seen before in the lever-action category.
“The lever-action platform remains as relevant and revered as ever,” added Wickstrom. “We’re thrilled to lead this new chapter in its history.”
