Henry H0244570 Side Gate Lever Action 45-70 Government

In the world of firearms, Henry Repeating Arms has long been revered for its commitment to tradition and innovation. Drawing inspiration from the classic 1860s-era Henry rifle, they have consistently crafted firearms with a distinctive removable tube magazine. Yet, they are not ones to rest on their laurels. When loyal customers speak, Henry listens.

The Henry Side Gate Lever Action .45-70 Govt embodies this blend of heritage and modernity by offering both a removable tube magazine for safe unloading and an innovative side loading gate to keep your firearm ready at all times. This dual-feature design ensures convenience without sacrificing safety or reliability.

The hallmark of any Henry firearm is unparalleled craftsmanship, and the Side Gate Lever Action is no exception. Its hardened brass receiver stands as both a testament to beauty and strength—equivalent in yield and tensile strength to steel while exuding unmatched elegance. The rifle's aesthetic appeal continues with brass accents adorning the buttplate and barrel band.

Aesthetics aside, functionality reigns supreme with American walnut furniture featuring intricate deep checkering that guarantees a firm grip under any conditions. This attention to detail extends further with a semi-buckhorn rear sight complemented by an ivory bead front sight atop a 20-inch round blued steel barrel—a combination engineered for precision accuracy synonymous with the Henry name.

This model chambers in .45-70 Gov't caliber, boasting formidable power through its 19.8-inch barrel length while maintaining manageable dimensions at an overall length of 38.1 inches and weighing just over seven pounds (7.09 lbs). With a capacity of four rounds housed within this robust yet refined package, it delivers exactly what discerning shooters demand: performance coupled with historical reverence.
