Henry Steel Wildlife Edition Side Gate .45-70 Lever Action Rifle
The Henry Steel Wildlife Edition Side Gate .45-70 Lever Action Rifle is where you look when you want a classic lever action with style that sets it apart from the rest, but not enough shine to risk spooking game. Like their brass cousins, this steel-framed rifle acknowledges a long history of hunting, and the lever action’s well-earned place in it for over 150 years. More subdued, with blued steel frames and furniture, it’s also lighter in weight for long days on foot through dense brush and high mountain terrain. Steel weighs less than our Henry’s hardened brass material, and the round barrels here also reduce weight for a trimmer hunting package that loses nothing in performance in the field. For added utility, Henry also added their popular side loading gate and removable tube magazine configuration.
This rifle is a trim powerhouse with its 18.43” barrel under semi-buckhorn rear and tall brass bead front sights. A checkered pistol grip walnut stock, sling swivel studs, and ventilated black rubber recoil pad fill out the package. Again sharing the .45-70 brass Wildlife Edition’s engraving pattern, a 24K gold relief profile of a bear adorns the left side of the blued frame inside gold-accented scroll, line, and braided borders, with a gold relief image of a moose head on the right side.
