Description

Before Winchester ever put its name on a lever gun, there was the Henry. B. Tyler Henry earned his patent in October of 1860 for a repeating rifle that fed metallic cartridges, and it changed everything that came after it. This Taylor's & Company reproduction, built by Uberti in Italy, stays remarkably true to that original design, right down to the frame-mounted magazine follower and the absence of a forend. Then it goes a step further with a brass frame that is laser engraved and finished by hand chasing, so the scrollwork has real depth and character instead of looking flat and stamped.

What Sets This 1860 Henry Apart

The 24.25 inch blued octagon barrel carries an integrated magazine tube underneath, which is the signature Henry feature. There is no loading gate on the side of the receiver. Instead, you pull the follower up the tube, rotate the sleeve at the muzzle end, and drop your cartridges in. Once you get the hang of it, topping off all 13 rounds takes well under a minute. Sights are a classic blade up front with a ladder rear, and the brass butt plate and walnut buttstock round out the period-correct look. Blued and case hardened small parts add some nice contrast against all that polished brass.

Shooting the Taylor's 1860 in .44-40

The .44-40 Winchester chambering is a natural fit here. It is a soft-recoiling, flat-shooting cartridge at practical distances, and it is a favorite in cowboy action circles for good reason. At around nine pounds, this rifle soaks up what little recoil the cartridge produces, so long range sessions stay comfortable. Whether you shoot cowboy matches, collect Civil War era designs, or just want a lever gun with genuine history behind it, this engraved Henry earns its spot in the safe. It is the kind of rifle people stop and ask about at the range, and it shoots as good as it looks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who makes the Taylor's & Company 1860 Henry?

Taylor's & Company imports this rifle from Uberti in Italy, one of the most respected makers of historical reproductions in the business. Uberti has been building period-correct replicas for decades, and this Henry is regarded as one of the closest reproductions of the original 1860 design you can buy.

How do you load the 1860 Henry rifle?

Unlike later lever guns, the Henry has no side loading gate. You pull the external follower all the way up the magazine tube, rotate the top sleeve toward the follower stop screw, and load cartridges from the muzzle end of the tube. It sounds fiddly on paper, but with a little practice you can fill all 13 rounds quickly.

Is the engraving on this 1860 Henry done by hand?

It is a combination of both methods. The brass frame is laser engraved first, then hand chased by a craftsman to sharpen the scrollwork and give it depth. The result looks far richer than plain machine engraving, and each rifle picks up a bit of individual character in the process.

Is the Taylor's 1860 Henry a good choice for cowboy action matches?

Absolutely. The .44-40 Winchester chambering is a long-time favorite in cowboy action circles, and the 13+1 capacity gives you plenty of rounds per stage. The nine pound weight keeps recoil mild and the muzzle steady, though you will want to practice the muzzle-end loading routine since it differs from gate-loading rifles.
