lever action

The Henry .45-70 is an heirloom-grade lever action with brass-frame swagger, side-gate loading, and enough thump to make bear country feel a little more negotiable. It is cowboy nostalgia with modern teeth, and yes, wagon train is still not included.

The rifle runs on a Model 1892-style action, chambered in .44 Remington Magnum, and feeds from a tubular magazine holding 8+1 rounds. It’s a familiar setup (compact, simple, and proven) especially for shooters who like running revolver cartridges through a rifle.

The Henry SPD Predator is not a traditional lever gun. Instead, it was designed from the action forward to deliver precision usually reserved for modern bolt‑action rifles.

The rifle is built on the legendary New Original Henry platform, a line-for-line reproduction of the world’s first lever-action rifle patented by Benjamin Tyler Henry in 1860, save for the modifications needed to accommodate the more modern .44-40 WCF cartridge it’s chambered for.

Three classic Marlin 336 builds put meat on the ground and smiles on faces. From a rescued 30-30 to a do-everything 35 Rem and a thumper 50 Alaskan, here is how old school still wins.

The Savage 99 is one of the earliest lever-action rifles that would allow the use of pointed bullets safely. It evolved from the Savage 1895, both of which were quite popular in the American West and Canada.

Henry’s engineers put in the time to create what may be one of the most advanced lever-action designs to come to the market. 

Both launches fuse classic lever-gun heritage with modern features built for today’s hunters and shooters.

Smith & Wesson continues to expand their modern lever-action offerings with the introduction of the Model 1854 Stealth Hunter.
