For the division’s first design, it embraced the rapidly growing trend of suppressor usage, building the SPD HUSH as the perfect host for a silencer.  At its heart, the Henry SPD HUSH is based on the company’s large-frame lever-action rifles, in…

Several years ago, I drew a limited hunt on public ground in my state. Part of that draw required hunters to harvest a doe before filling their buck tags. I went into that hunt assuming I’d tag a doe on the first day and have three days to find a buck. Boy, was I wrong.It wasn’t until my third day that I even saw a doe on that pressured ground.
