Henry's Golden Boy in .22 WMR is a lever-action rimfire with a 20.5-inch blued octagonal barrel, a Brasslite receiver and barrel band, a brass buttplate and an American walnut stock. Cartridges feed from a tubular magazine under the barrel. The rear sight is an adjustable buckhorn and the front a brass bead; the rifle weighs 6.75 pounds and runs 39 inches overall, and there is no manual safety.

The magnum rimfire carries more energy and reach than .22 LR, which is what makes it a small-game cartridge rather than just a plinking round. In New Jersey rimfire rifles are not legal for deer, so this is a rifle for small game and the range, where the weight and the octagon barrel steady it for offhand shooting. The lever and brass receiver are the traditional Henry look, and the smooth action feeds round after round from the tube.
