Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine Side Gate Lever Action Rifle – .357 Magnum / .38 Special, 16.5″ Barrel, 7-Round Capacity

Description

The Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine Side Gate is a compact, fast-handling lever action rifle built for shooters who want classic performance in a lighter, more maneuverable package. Chambered in .357 Magnum and also compatible with .38 Special, this carbine offers excellent versatility for everything from range shooting to practical field use.

With its 16.5-inch barrel, the Big Boy Steel Carbine is especially well-suited for tight brush, trail carry, and quick handling scenarios where a full-length rifle may feel cumbersome.

The inclusion of a side loading gate adds traditional loading convenience, allowing shooters to top off the magazine smoothly without removing the inner tube.
