Editor’s Note: The Henry Lever Action Axe .410 is an amazingly fun firearm to shoot. With a 15.14-inch barrel and a 26.4-inch overall length, the Axe is easy to store anywhere and is easy to handle and maneuver. Users get 5+1 rounds of the light-recoiling .410 gauge, and a side loading gate makes it easy to keep the ammo topped off. It comes standard with a full choke and is internally threaded to accept other Invector-style chokes. A walnut pistol grip and forend and a brass bead front sight complete the look and help deliver a package that is both enticing to shoot and to look at.

By The Numbers

Accuracy
Accuracy is solid but somewhat limited by the ergonomics.
Reliability
We tested shotshells from Federal, Winchester, and Aguila, and they’ve all loaded, gone bang, and ejected without issue.
Customization
You can add a sling, but other than that, there isn't much.
Ergonomics
Overall this is a simple gun. It’s a little heavy, and the only reason I knocked a point off is for the lever-action design with a PGO only weapon. It’s slightly awkward.

FINAL VERDICT

"The Henry Axe .410 is a super fun plinker and target shooter. Don’t mistake it for anything else and you’ll love the looks, quality, and reliability. However, quality comes at a cost and the design leaves little for upgrades. It’s the most fun I’ve had in a long time. If you get a chance, at least ask to see it in the gun store and work that action a few times." - Travis Pike
