Henry Lever Action Supreme Rifle Named G&A Rifle of the Year
The Lever Action Supreme Rifle (LASR) from Henry Repeating Arms has been named 2025 Rifle of the Year by Guns & Ammo magazine. The selection was based on a rigorous evaluation process, which included extensive field testing, in-store availability checks, and value assessments. With these considerations, Henry’s LASR rose above other new rifles introduced in 2025 to earn Guns & Ammo’s top honor.
Chambered in .223 Wylde or .300 Blackout, the LASR is available at Henry dealers nationwide with an MSRP of $1,299. For more information, visit www.HenryUSA.com.
This new Henry rifle will be featured in the Guns & Ammo November 2025 issue which hits newsstands on November 5th. In the feature story, Guns & Ammo highlighted the Lever Action Supreme Rifle’s ability to reliably feed from commonly available MSR-pattern detachable box magazines, a unique feature for a lever-action rifle. The Guns & Ammo editors also praised the Henry’s quad-bar linkage action that allows reliable, smooth operation without interference from the magazine. Among the key factors that earned Gun of the Year honors, Guns & Ammo noted the LASR rifle’s sub-MOA accuracy potential, suppressor-ready design, good handling, and high-quality materials.
“We set out with this rifle to raise the bar for America’s most iconic rifle platform, and this award suggests that the team was able to accomplish just that,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “We’re honored that Guns & Ammo has recognized the fruits of our labor, and I am incredibly proud of the many bright minds that came together to make this rifle a reality.”
The free December issue will include the 2017 Guns & Ammo of the Year Awards (page 52) and a first-look at the new Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact, Shield and M360 lightweight revolver.
