Henry Big Boy Carbine .44 Mag Lever Action Rifle with Steel Side Gate and Big Loop, Walnut Stock$730.13
Availability: In Stock
The Henry Big Boy Carbine Side Gate .45 LC is a lever-action rifle built for shooters who value classic handling and authentic craftsmanship in a compact, pack-friendly platform. At 16.5 inches, the barrel is shorter than full-size lever rifles, making this .45 Colt carbine easier to maneuver in brush and tight spaces—ideal for hunting in dense terrain or working from horseback. The side gate loading mechanism modernizes the traditional Henry experience, letting you top off rounds without removing the barrel band, a practical upgrade that speeds up reloading in the field or at the range.
Built on Henry's proven large-loop lever action, this rifle cycles smoothly and reliably through seven rounds of .45 Colt ammunition. The blued steel receiver and round barrel wear their finish traditionally, while the American walnut stock gives it a warm, time-tested look that doesn't sacrifice durability. At 6.59 pounds, it balances light enough to carry all day without feeling fragile. The transfer bar safety ensures the gun won't fire if dropped—a solid design feature for field use.
This Big Boy Carbine is equally at home on the target range or in the hunting woods. The fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with diamond insert and brass bead front sight work well for both precision shooting and quick target acquisition at moderate ranges. The rifle ships drilled and tapped for scope mounts (BB-RSM compatible), so you can add optics if you want them, or run it open-sight for that authentic lever-gun feel. Swivel studs let you attach a sling, and the black rubber recoil pad soaks up the .45 Colt's mild kick. With a 14-inch length of pull, it fits most adult shooters comfortably.
