The products we carry are chosen for a reason: reliability where it matters most. The Henry Side Gate Brass .45-70 Government Lever-Action Rifle brings together traditional American craftsmanship, high-end visual appeal, and heavy big-bore performance. Built with a solid, polished hardened brass receiver and matching barrel band, this classic rifle features a hand-selected genuine American walnut stock with crisp checker patterns that give you a dependable hold on wet trails. The action features a smooth-cycling side loading gate combined with a traditional removable tube magazine, allowing you to top off shells on the fly or unload the weapon safely without cycling live ammunition through the chamber. Outfitted with a 22-inch blued steel barrel, a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight, and a clear brass bead front sight, this fast-handling rifle delivers smooth mechanical operation, immense stopping power, and deep confidence when exploring remote country tracks.
