Which rifles are made where?

Post by ditto1958 » Thu Apr 18, 2019 11:03 am

I’m curious, which models does Henry make in Wisconsin?

Not real sure, however, my SGC is stamped Bayonne, NJ and my BBS 357 came from Rice Lake, WI.
Based on that...maybe rim fires are made in NJ and center fires are made in WI. Don't know if that applies to all calibers and models though...just my 2 cents.

As I understand it, currently all centerfire rifles (and the shotguns) are made in Rice Lake, as well as some of the parts for the rimfire line. Apparently the Rice Lake facility was making parts for Henry prior to their acquiring that plant, which Henry did when the previous company moved its other operations off shore. There were some centerfires made in Bayonne prior to that, though; I happen to have a Bayonne made 30-30, with the standard ghost ring peep of that model.

It seems like you never hear about problems with the NJ guns?

FWIW, recently got my SGC back from there for warranty work.

There is an older brief topic somewhere on this here. I remember that the brass centerfire are made in NJ. I don't remember what else. My Long Ranger was made in Rice Lake.

Fortunately, given the great CS and warranty from Henry, I really don't care where which is made. Just keep making them period. :D

I have a 22, and a 44 BBB that were both made in Brooklyn NY, and my 41 BBS was made in Rice lake.
Not sure when the 22 was made, but 44 made Oct. of '07.

History
"The physical plant in Rice Lake... had produced parts for Henry Repeating Arms ( HRA ) that were then shipped to the parent operation in New Jersey. When the Rice Lake (a non-gun) factory went in other directions of manufacturing, Henry Repeating Arms in 2007 acquired the plant to continue producing the needed parts. This eventually morphed into greater parts production, leading in 2014 to the manufacturing of completed rifles at Henry Wisconsin." https://www.ammoland.com/2015/12/henry- ... z3vrkbALBA
