The Henry Big Boy Side Gate .357/.38 lever action rifle brings classic American gunmaking into the modern era without sacrificing the timeless appeal that makes these rifles iconic. This engraved H006GMD model combines the smooth, reliable lever action that hunters and sport shooters trust with practical refinements—most notably the side gate loading system that speeds up ammunition handling compared to traditional tube-fed designs. Chambered in .357 Magnum/.38 Special, it's a versatile rifle for hunting medium game, plinking, and target work, with enough power for serious use and enough nostalgia to satisfy the collector's eye.
What sets this rifle apart is the marriage of form and function. The 20-inch octagon barrel is blued steel, and the polished hardened brass receiver gives it that warm, classic aesthetic that draws eyes at the range. The semi-fancy American walnut furniture and brass buttplate feel substantial in your hands—this is a rifle built to last generations. The fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with diamond insert and brass bead front sight are proven sighting solutions; the drilled-and-tapped receiver accepts scope mounts for shooters who want modern optics on a traditional platform. At 8.68 pounds and 38.5 inches overall, it balances handiness with stability.
The 10-round capacity and transfer bar safety round out a package designed for real use. Limited to 1,000 units, this engraved variant adds collectibility—receiver and barrel band engraving plus the side loading gate make it a standout among Big Boy rifles. Whether you're building a lever-gun battery, hunting hogs or deer at moderate ranges, or simply appreciate fine American rifle craft, this Henry delivers.
