HENRY INFO: The Henry Original Rifle is true to Henry's 1860 patterns and patents, and virtually identical aside from concessions necessary to adapt to the 45 Colt centerfire rounds. This Lever Toggle Link Action rifle features a polished, hardened brass receiver with the same tensile strength as steel. It is fitted with a one-piece 24.5" octagonal blued steel barrel and magazine. Its fancy-grade American Walnut stock has a brass buttplate. The Henry Original rifle has a classic folding ladder rear sight and blade front, traditional half-cock safety hammer notch, and no modernized manual safeties. CONDITION: This rifle is new/ unfired with no box wear, has a perfect bore, appears to be in good working order and comes in original box with paperwork. HISTORY: In the late 1850s, metallic cartridges were the coming wave of firearm's technology, and besides the difficulties inherent to developing reliable and effective self-contained rounds, the new ammunition demanded equally new gun designs capable of taking full advantage of what the quick-loading cartridge offered. Cartridges that revolutionized a field of slow-loading, slow-firing, and slow-reloading powder & ball single-shots freed designers to create a rifle that could keep up, and the very talented Benjamin Tyler Henry quickly stepped to the front in both areas. The result was the legendary repeating rifle that became known as the 1860 Henry in .44 Henry Rimfire. A pioneering design in a reliable and practical lever action repeater, and adopted in limited numbers during the Civil War, the Henry was the 16-shot rifle referred to as “the rifle you could load on Sunday and shoot all week long.” In the days when the average soldier was expected to be able to fire up to three rounds per minute through his muzzle-loading Springfield rifle, a small unit armed with Henry rifles could provide the firepower of an entire company. That ground-breaking lever action rifle design was the foundation for a uniquely American class of long guns that’s still with us today, over 155 years later. FREE SHIPPING & NO PROCESSING FEES.
