Eagle Scout Centennial Tribute Edition Side Gate .44 Magnum/.44 Spl

As a testament to the remarkable accomplishments of scouting’s highest achievers and in reverence to a history spanning over a century, Henry Repeating Arms is proud to offer this noteworthy tribute rifle in honor of America’s Eagle Scouts® built on the world-renown Big Boy platform.

Starting with the iconic hardened brass receiver, the Eagle Scout® Award Medal is engraved on the right flat and selectively nickel plated for contrast. An American-style scroll pattern surrounds the medal, and the flourishes continue to the right of the side loading gate. A scrolling banner reads, “BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA,” next to the medal. A highly-detailed majestic portrait of a bald eagle graces the left side of the receiver, again selectively plated in nickel for high contrast. Intertwined with the scrollwork, a banner reads, “TO THIS I PLEDGE MY SACRED HONOR,” the closing line of a pledge recited at every Eagle Court of Honor as a reminder of what has been achieved and what is promised.

Though beautiful enough to make a lasting impression without it, the genuine American walnut stocks are also embellished with fantastically detailed engravings painted in full color by hand. On the buttstock, the portrait of a bald eagle’s head makes another appearance above one of America’s most powerful symbolic images – a bald eagle soaring in full flight. The words, “ONCE AN EAGLE, Always an Eagle,” complete the buttstock design. The forearm of the rifle depicts different versions of the Eagle Scout badge throughout history, including the milestone Centennial version implemented in 2012.

For those inclined to take the rifle out to the range, this fully functional work of art will get you on target with a fully-adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight and brass bead front sight, a tube magazine capable of holding ten rounds of .44 Magnum or .44 Special, and a 20” blued steel octagon barrel. The receiver is even drilled and tapped for optional scope use.

Simply put, there is no finer gift or reminder of youthful success than this special tribute. Henry Repeating Arms, an Official Licensee of the Boy Scouts of America, is also proud to offer the Eagle Scout Tribute Edition rifle as an alternative or addition to the collection.
