The Henry Side Gate .45-70 lever action rifle is a modern take on a classic American design, built for hunters and shooters who appreciate traditional handling with practical upgrades. This Model H024-4570 combines the quick-handling nature of lever action with the stopping power of .45-70 Government, making it a solid choice for hunting large game and working in brush or timber where a compact, responsive rifle matters. The 19.8-inch barrel keeps the overall length at 38.1 inches—nimble enough for tight quarters—while the .45-70 cartridge delivers the energy needed for elk, deer, and other substantial game out to reasonable hunting distances.

What sets this Henry apart is the side gate loading system, which modernizes the classic Henry experience without sacrificing the gun's character. The polished brass receiver and American walnut stock give it that timeless lever-gun aesthetic, but the drilled and tapped receiver means you can mount optics for extended-range work if you choose. The transfer bar safety keeps things secure, and the 4-round capacity paired with quick lever cycling makes follow-up shots practical when they're needed.

At 7.09 pounds, it's light enough for a day in the field without being so light that recoil becomes punishing. The fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with diamond insert and ramp front sight with ivory bead give you solid backup iron sight options, and the brass buttplate is both functional and period-correct. Swivel studs are included for sling attachment, and the 1:20 twist handles .45-70 ammunition reliably. This is the kind of rifle that works as hard as you do, whether on the hunt, at the range, or in a serious collection.
