The Henry Big Boy Side Gate Carbine is a compact lever-action rifle chambered for .357 Mag and .38 Special. Its 16.5-inch blued octagon steel barrel and 35-inch overall length make it easy to handle in the field, while the American walnut stock and polished hardened brass receiver deliver the traditional Big Boy appearance. The rifle holds 7 rounds and combines a side loading gate with Henry’s removable magazine tube for flexible loading and unloading. A large loop lever, adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight, brass bead front sight, and drilled-and-tapped receiver complete this versatile carbine. The transfer-bar safety helps prevent an unintended discharge when the rifle is handled or carried.
