Owners of the Henry Golden Boy revolver in the H016GD configuration generally point to the trigger and fit as the first things they notice. The DAO pull is smooth enough out of the box that most owners shoot it without modification, and the gunfighter grip draws favorable comments for its natural point of aim.

The .22 rimfire chambering keeps this revolver inexpensive to run, and the multi-length cylinder compatibility gives it some flexibility at the range. A common criticism is that 10 rounds feels like a limitation once you have the rhythm of a DAO trigger dialed in, especially for casual plinkers.

Build quality is consistently praised for a Henry product. The walnut grips and blued finish hold up well with normal use, and owners report that the transfer bar safety gives it a confidence-inspiring feel for carry in the field. The Golden Boy name carries real weight in the rimfire market, though a small number of buyers expected a single action mechanism and were surprised by the DAO-only design.
