Henry New Original Lever Action Rifle .44-40 WCF 24.5" Octagonal Blued Steel Barrel 13 Rounds Polished Brass Receiver Fancy American Walnut Stock

Benjamin Tyler Henry invented a revolutionary repeating rifle in the late 1850s that became the most important firearm of its time. First used during the Civil War, the rifle had rapid fire capability that set it far above the single shot muskets commonly in use. The Henry Original rifle is virtually identical to its historic ancestor in all ways except caliber. The first Henry repeater was chambered in .44 Rimfire, a caliber that is long obsolete. Instead, this Henry New Original is chambered in .44-40 Winchester, a caliber that has historical significance of its own. Every rifle's serial number begins with BTH as a tribute to its inventor.

The Henry New Original lever action rifle features a polished brass receiver paired with a 24.5" blued steel octagonal barrel. Additionally this rifle features a tubular magazine, 14" Length of pull fancy American Walnut stock and classic folding ladder rear sight.
