Henry H011 Original Octagon 44-40 Rifle

Original Henry BTH .44-40 Lever Action Rifle

In the annals of firearm history, few names resonate with as much reverence as Benjamin Tyler Henry. The Original Henry Rifle, conceived in the 1850s, was a revolutionary leap forward from its single-shot musket predecessors. Fast forward to today, and this iconic lever-action rifle continues to embody the spirit of innovation that defined its era.

The Original Henry retains all the classic elements that made it legendary—now chambered in .44-40 caliber instead of the obsolete .44 Rimfire. This modern iteration offers a substantial capacity of 13 rounds within its tubular magazine, ensuring you have plenty at your disposal when precision counts.

Craftsmanship is evident throughout this masterpiece. Measuring an overall length of 43 inches with a robust 24.5-inch octagonal barrel, it delivers both balance and accuracy. The fancy American walnut buttstock adds not only aesthetic appeal but also ergonomic comfort for extended shooting sessions.

A hardened brass buttplate complements the polished brass receiver—a testament to durability with strength comparable to steel while maintaining traditional elegance. For those who seek enhanced sighting options, the grooved receiver allows for effortless scope mounting without compromising on authenticity.

Sighting is achieved through a classic folding ladder rear sight coupled with a blade front sight—an arrangement that has stood the test of time for reliable target acquisition.

Proudly manufactured in America by Henry Repeating Arms, each rifle begins life honoring its creator with serial numbers prefixed by BTH—Benjamin Tyler Henry's initials—a lasting tribute embedded into every piece produced.
