‘Tactical’ lever guns have recently become a popular option for lever-action enthusiasts. At one point in time, these were only offered by a small group of gunsmiths.

Sunlight glints off the polished brass receiver of the New Original Henry. The New Original Henry is based on the Henry Model 1860. It was described by Confederate soldiers as “that damned Yankee rifle that can be loaded on Sunday and fired all week.”

Lever guns are one of those rare American-made and designed firearms. They are deeply tied to our culture and are often seen as a representation of the American cowboy rifle.

The 2023 National Rifle Association Annual Meetings and Exhibits saw the debut of a new firearm that is sure to become a classic: the Big Boy Revolver from Henry.

Most people don’t think of lever actions when they consider modern self-defense rifles mostly because they were the military, law enforcement, and civilian choice of the late 1800s.

Turns out that with a few modifications they work fantastic for all of that though.
