Features 

The break-open action loads and unloads quickly. The American Walnut stock has a stained finish and a fixed configuration. At 6.55 lbs., it is on the heavier side for a single-shot .410, but the weight helps absorb recoil. The blued steel construction resists corrosion with basic maintenance.

The Henry .410 Single Shot earns consistent praise for its walnut stock quality and classic appearance. Owners find it a natural fit for small game hunting and clay target practice, and newcomers appreciate the simple single-shot operation as a low-pressure way to learn. The .410 gauge's lighter recoil compared to larger gauges is frequently mentioned.

The main practical limitation that comes up is firepower, the single shot means a slower follow-up if a first shot misses, and the .410 gauge has less pattern density than 12 or 20 gauge. Some owners note the shotgun is built for targeted use rather than heavy-duty field work in rough conditions.
