Henry .45-70 Side Gate rifle
Henry .45-70 Side Gate, the Side Gate Lever Action features exquisite attention to detail and a level of craftsmanship rarely seen in other modern firearms. The hardened brass receiver is as reliable as it is handsome with the same yield and tensile strength as steel. The brass accents continue through the rifle with the buttplate and barrel band. The American walnut furniture is set off by intricate, deep checkering that will ensure a firm purchase on the stocks. A semi-buckhorn rear and ivory bead front sight accompanies a 19.8″ round blued steel barrel to deliver the accuracy you’ve come to expect from a Henry.
In addition to legendary Henry craftsmanship, the feature that gives this rifle its name takes center stage. The best-of-both-worlds design allows for quick reloads and top-offs so you can keep running and gunning for as long as your ammo lasts without even having to remove the stock from your shoulder. If you prefer, you can also load through the removable tube magazine, which hasn’t gone away here because it also provides safe, fast unloading. The result is a rifle that lets you use it in whatever way works best for you.
From whitetail hunting to days at the range, to standing as a favorite show-piece in the gun cabinet, this Side Gate Lever Action is a must-have for any lever action aficionado, and it solidifies Henry as the first name in lever action rifles.

I collect .22 rimfire lever rifles, all famous brands and models including Winchester 9422, Browning BL22, Henry Golden Boy, and Marlin 39As. I am a manufacturing engineer who has built precision missle, aircraft and aerospace products for over 25 years. I bought a Henry Golden boy model H004 lever gun because of my examination of it at the local gun store. When I got home, I took it apart to see if the internal workmanship equaled the outside apparent quality. I found 100% perfection in the machining, the working mechanical parts fit & finish of the moving parts. Not one flaw anywhere makes me able to say that the quality equals the quality of the precision military parts I used to manufacture. The overall quality of the Henry H004 Golden Boy equals the quality of the now \’out-of-production\’ of the Winchester 9422 lever rifle which is flawlessly perfect in all respects. Where the Henry Golden Boy H004 excels over all other lever rifles is the realistic price.
