Midwest Industries G2 M-LOK Aluminum Handguard for Henry X 44 Magnum/45 Long Colt - Black
Midwest Industries
If you're running a Henry X in .357 Magnum and want to modernize your lever gun's ergonomics without sacrificing its character, the Midwest Industries G2 M-LOK aluminum handguard is built for exactly that job. This second-generation handguard replaces the factory forend on most Henry lever-action rifles, giving you a lightweight, rigid platform for accessories while keeping the gun's natural handling intact. Constructed from hard coat anodized 6061 aluminum, it's engineered to handle serious use and built to last.
The G2 design keeps things simple: a slim profile that won't bulk up your rifle, forward-mounted sling swivel for traditional hunting carry, and one 5-slot M-LOK rail section included so you can mount lights, lasers, or other gear right out of the box. At 7.4 ounces and 13.625 inches long, it adds minimal weight while giving you genuine improvement in control and accessory versatility. Whether you're setting up a truck gun, a backcountry lever action, or a tack-driving range rifle, this handguard lets you build exactly the platform you need.
Made in the USA from materials built for a lifetime of field use, the G2 represents what happens when a proven manufacturer focuses on quality over hype. It's the kind of upgrade that works whether you're hunting, training, or just making your .357 Henry more shootable and adaptable to your needs.

The handguard weighs 7.4 ounces. Because it's replacing your factory forend rather than adding to it, the actual weight penalty depends on what you're removing. The slim profile and aluminum construction are designed to minimize overall impact on handling and balance.
