Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine | .45 Long Colt | 16.5″ H012GCR

The Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine Side Gate is a compact lever-action carbine built on a blued steel receiver with American walnut furniture and a 16.5″ round blued steel barrel. It features a large-loop lever, a side loading gate combined with a removable tubular magazine, drilled and tapped scopeability, and an in-hammer transfer bar safety. For an optic under $1,000 that complements the carbine’s hunting and target roles, consider a low-power variable such as the Vortex Crossfire II 1-6×24.

Applications: target shooting and hunting/large-game field use where fast follow-up shots and traditional handling are desirable.
