Henry H012GR Big Boy Steel Carbine 44 Magnum

Big Boy Steel Carbine 44MAG Side Gate

The Big Boy Steel Carbine from Henry Repeating Arms stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of American craftsmanship, blending tradition with modern innovation. For those who appreciate the heritage of B.T. Henry's iconic 1860 rifle but require a more practical option for today's hunting expeditions, this firearm offers an ideal solution.

This carbine is chambered in .44 Magnum/.44 Special and features a compact 16.5-inch round blued steel barrel that provides excellent maneuverability without sacrificing performance. Weighing in at just 6.59 pounds, it’s significantly lighter than its brass-framed predecessors, making it perfect for long treks over rugged terrain.

The design incorporates genuine American walnut for both the fore-end and straight-wrist stock, each adorned with fine checkering to ensure a firm grip under any conditions. The addition of swivel studs allows for easy attachment of slings or other accessories.

Functionality meets versatility with the side loading gate paired with a removable tube magazine configuration—allowing quick reloads while maintaining safety through an automatic in-hammer transfer bar mechanism. With seven rounds held securely within its tubular magazine, you’re well-prepared whether on target practice or chasing large game.

Sighting options include fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sights complete with diamond inserts and a front brass bead sight—a setup designed to enhance accuracy across various distances and lighting conditions. Moreover, enthusiasts interested in optics will find this model drilled and tapped for scope mounts compatible with BB-RSM types.
