If the thought of carrying a full-length rifle up a mountain or through the brush is weighing you down, take a load off with the Big Boy Brass Side Gate Carbine, a modern interpretation of the trapper classics of the past. This compact package combines all the features of our legendary Big Boy Rifle with the quick handling characteristics of a shorter, carbine length barrel – shedding nearly a pound in barrel weight. The Henry Repeating Arms Big Boy Brass Side Gate is a lever action rifle chambered for 357 Magnum / 38 Special. Features include a 16.5" barrel, a brass bead front sight with an adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight, a walnut stock, a brass receiver, a large loop lever, and a 7+1 round capacity.
