In the realm of firearm enhancements, few upgrades offer as much versatility and precision as the XS Lever Rail for the Henry .45-70. This meticulously crafted accessory transforms your rifle into a flexible platform capable of accommodating a wide array of optics, from traditional scopes to modern red dot sights.
The XS Lever Rail is engineered specifically for Henry Steel Frame carbines chambered in .45-70 with round barrels. Its lightweight construction employs aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, ensuring that strength is not sacrificed at the altar of weight reduction. The hard anodized finish guarantees durability, providing you with reliable service across any environment you might encounter.
This rail adheres to Picatinny specifications, offering mil standard 1913 mounting slots that allow for an impressive range of scope placements. Whether you're opting for conventional scopes or low-powered variable optics (LVPO), this rail accommodates them all. It even supports forward mounting options suitable for scout scopes—a nod to those who prefer rapid target acquisition without sacrificing accuracy.
Installation necessitates the removal of your factory rear sight but rewards you with unparalleled flexibility in sighting configurations once complete. All screws must be torqued precisely to 20 inch-pounds; heed this guideline carefully as over-torquing can lead to fractures or breaks in the screws—an avoidable misstep when following clear instructions.
Proudly manufactured in Fort Worth, Texas, each piece reflects a commitment to quality and craftsmanship synonymous with American manufacturing excellence. When paired with XS Ghost Ring Sights—optional yet highly recommended—you unlock a versatile setup tailored perfectly to meet diverse shooting preferences and scenarios.
