The Cimarron 1860 Henry .45 LC rifle with 24" barrel brings Civil War–era lever-action heritage into the modern shooting world. This CA288 model is a faithful reproduction of the iconic Henry rifle—the same dependable repeater that earned respect (and fear) on nineteenth-century battlefields. If you're drawn to classic American firearms, love the smooth handling of a lever gun, or shoot cowboy action matches, this all-American rifle delivers authentic character alongside genuine function.
Chambered in .45 LC, the Henry handles the same cartridge favored by handloaders and cowboy competitors, making it a natural companion to period-correct six-shooters or modern single-actions. The 24-inch blued barrel balances pointability in the field with velocity enough for hunting or target work at moderate distances. A brass frame and walnut furniture complete the classic look—this isn't a safe queen, but a shooter's rifle that rewards you every time you work the lever.
The rifle carries 12 rounds in its under-barrel tube magazine, a feature that made the original Henry revolutionary for its day. Simple blade front and adjustable rear sights keep things straightforward; if you want to mount optics, the receiver accommodates modern additions without sacrificing the period aesthetic. At just over 9 pounds, it's light enough for a full day afield yet substantial enough to feel solid when you're working the action or steadying it on a rest.
