The Henry Original Rifle is true to Henry's 1860 patterns and patents, and virtually identical aside from concessions necessary to adapt to the 45 Colt centerfire rounds. This Lever Toggle Link Action rifle features a polished, hardened brass receiver with the same tensile strength as steel. It is fitted with a one-piece octagonal blued steel barrel and magazine. Its fancy-grade American Walnut stock has a brass buttplate. The Henry Original rifle has a classic folding ladder rear sight and blade front, traditional half-cock safety hammer notch, and no modernized manual safeties.
