Henry Big Boy Color Case Hardened Carbine .45 LC 16.5 H012GCRCC

The Henry Big Boy Color Case Hardened Carbine is a lever-action rifle chambered in .45 Long Colt with a 16.5-inch octagon blued steel barrel and a color case-hardened steel receiver. It pairs traditional American walnut furniture with practical features such as a side loading gate, drilled-and-tapped receiver and a transfer-bar safety. This configuration suits shooters who want a classic-styled lever gun for range work and hunting large game.

For optics, a compact low- to mid-power riflescope such as the Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 provides a clear, durable option under $1000 that preserves the rifle’s sight picture and balances well on a 16.5″ carbine. The receiver is drilled and tapped to accept a BB-RSM scope mount for straightforward installation.
