Henry Big Boy Color Case Hardened Side Gate .44 Mag Lever Rifle 20″

Description

There is something about a color case hardened receiver that makes a lever gun feel like it came from another era, and Henry nailed the look on this one. Every Big Boy CCH wears its own unique swirl of blues, browns, and grays across the steel frame, set against a 20 inch octagon blued barrel and checkered American walnut furniture. No two receivers come out of the process looking the same, so the rifle you take home is genuinely one of a kind.

Why the Big Boy Side Gate Design Matters

Henry gave this rifle the best of both loading worlds. There is a traditional side loading gate on the receiver for topping off rounds on the move, plus Henry's removable tube magazine that makes unloading simple without cycling every cartridge through the action. It holds 10 rounds of .44 Magnum, and it also runs .44 Special when you want a softer day at the range. Sights are a brass bead up front with a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear featuring a white diamond insert, and the receiver comes drilled and tapped if you would rather mount a scope or red dot.

A .44 Mag Lever Gun That Earns Its Keep

Out of a 20 inch barrel, .44 Magnum picks up a meaningful velocity bump over a revolver, which turns this into a legitimate hunting rifle for deer and hogs inside 100 yards or so. At 7.84 pounds with a 37.5 inch overall length, it balances nicely, rides well in a scabbard or truck rack, and the solid rubber recoil pad keeps magnum loads comfortable. Sling swivel studs come standard, and the transfer bar safety means the hammer can rest safely over a loaded chamber.

Whether you pair it with a .44 revolver for a matched trail setup, put it to work during straight wall deer season, or just want a lever action with real character in the safe, this Big Boy delivers Henry's smooth action and dependable accuracy wrapped in a finish people will ask about at the range.
