Gforce Arms GFLVR44P Saddlehorn 44 Mag 5+1 12" Black Threaded Barrel & Receiver, Turkish Walnut Stock & Forend, Thread Protector

The Gforce Arms Saddlehorn is a lever-action pistol built in .44 Magnum for shooters who want a compact, handheld rifle-style platform with serious stopping power. At 12 inches of barrel length and chambered in one of the most respected magnum handgun cartridges, this is a purpose-built tool for hunting, personal defense, or just running a levergun that fits in spaces a rifle won't. The aluminum receiver and 4140 steel barrel keep weight down to 4.5 pounds while the Turkish walnut furniture gives it the look and feel of a classic, not a novelty.

If you've shot a Mare's Leg or love the handling of a compact lever, the Saddlehorn takes that design philosophy and delivers it in a caliber that punches hard. The large loop lever and leather loop wrap are practical touches that make handling intuitive, and the 3-position hammer gives you flexibility in how you want to run the gun. The trigger breaks at 5 pounds—crisp enough for precision, heavy enough to keep things safe. A manual safety adds another layer of control when you need it.

The threaded muzzle (1/2-28 inch) opens up suppressor and brake options if that's your play. Iron sights front and rear mean you're ready to work right out of the box, no mounting rail gymnastics required. Five rounds on tap, plus one in the chamber, gives you a total of six in the tube—a respectable magazine for a platform this compact and handy. The thread protector stays on until you decide what goes on the end of that barrel.
