In the past, Henry have always taken inspiration from the original 1860s-era Henry rifle by opting to design firearms with a removable tube magazine. They're no sticks in the mud though, and when loyal Henry customers ask, loyal Henry customers receive. The Side Gate Lever Action offers up the best of both worlds with standard removable tube magazine for safe and easy unloading and a side loading gate to keep the magazine topped off.

Features

• 20" Octagon Barrel
• Brass Receiver
• Side Gate
• Brass Front Bead and Fully Adjustable Semi-Buckhorn Rear Sight

The Rossi R95 Lever Action Centerfire Rifle was designed to fill a hole in the increasingly popular lever action rifle category. The superior fit and finish, along with an attractive price point, make this rifle a great addition to any collection. There is no more aesthetically pleasing feeling than a smooth lever action. It’s evocative of great westerns, classic hunts, and everything that’s good about America. You’ll experience that feeling every time you lever a new round into the chamber thanks to the hand finished action. Someone once said the best guns are made from steel and wood. The hardwood walnut forend and stock on the R95 are the perfect match for the deep blue finish. The cold hammer forged barrel enhances accuracy while preserving the longevity of the rifle. Your groups won’t change from the first to the ten thousandth shot. The R95 is also drilled and tapped for optics from the factory. It’s using 8-40 screws, so lots of common mounts will go on easily.

Features

• Hammer forged barrel
• Smooth, hand finished lever action
• Large loading gate
• Hardwood walnut finish
• Drilled and tapped scope mount for optics

The lever-action itself is a time-honored design that’s every bit as valid today as it was in 1860 when B. Tyler Henry developed his legendary repeater. If you’re a dedicated small-gamer, these Henry lever actions with thoroughly modern Skinner sights mated to Henry’s well-known rimfire accuracy take the popular Frontier Model right square into new territory.

Small game can be hard to see, and when there’s a little more on the line than tin cans and Saturday afternoon plinking, precise sights are a must. Since the critters typically hunted rarely stand as still as tin cans do, quick follow-up shots are also frequently needed, and the smooth action Henry Repeating Arms is famous for is a perfect match for the capabilities of the Skinner sight.

In either barrel length, 16.25 or 20 inches, the Small Game Carbine and Rifle are fitted with Skinner’s solid steel rear base and fully adjustable aperture (with .096” insert or .200” ghost ring option) specifically dimensioned to line up perfectly with the tall brass bead front sight for easy zeroing, greater visibility, and more precision when it’s needed.

The Small Game series retained the American walnut stock, classic octagon barrel and versatile utility in all three standard .22 rimfires, the Long Rifle, Long, and Short to cover everything from trapline to tree-top and beyond; and added a cold-weather, glove-friendly, over-sized large loop lever to this trim four-season hunter. Easy through the brush, quick on target, and fast on follow-up. A serious hunting lever gun for serious lever gun hunters.

Features

• 3/8" Grooved receiver for easy scope mounting
• Long Rifle version also shoots 22 long and 22 Short
• Large loop lever
