Henry H012GC Big Boy 45 Colt Lever Action Rifle

Big Boy Steel 45LC Bl/Wd Side Gate

The Big Boy Steel Side Gate lever-action rifle stands as a testament to both tradition and modernity, offering the discerning hunter a robust and versatile firearm. With roots tracing back to B.T. Henry's iconic 1860 rifle, this model honors its heritage while shedding unnecessary weight for those who prefer agility on the hunt.

This particular variant is chambered in .45 Colt, providing ample power for large game pursuits. It boasts a capacity of ten rounds housed within its tube magazine—ideal for extended sessions without frequent reloads.

At first glance, you'll notice the classic allure of genuine American walnut gracing both fore-end and straight-wrist stock. The fine checkering not only enhances grip but also speaks to an era where craftsmanship was paramount. Complementing this are range-adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sights with diamond inserts paired with a brass bead front sight—a combination designed for precision across varied distances.

The barrel itself measures 20 inches in length, crafted from round blued steel with an optimal rate of twist at 1:16, ensuring accuracy remains uncompromised shot after shot. Weighing in at seven pounds and stretching out over an overall length of 37.5 inches, it strikes that delicate balance between heft and maneuverability.

A thoughtful inclusion is the side loading gate coupled with a removable tube magazine configuration—offering convenience whether you're topping off or unloading your rounds entirely. An automatic transfer bar safety integrated into the hammer provides peace of mind against accidental discharges.

This rifle’s receiver finish is elegantly blued steel; moreover, it's drilled and tapped should you wish to mount optics via BB-RSM scope mounts—a nod towards adaptability based on personal preference or situational need.
