Product Overview
This military Henry model includes a brass frame, charcoal blued barrel, case hardened parts, brass butt plate, walnut butt stock, and sling swivels. The Charcoal Blue finish is a delicate over-oxidized bluing that, when new it is a bright blue color, but over time with use it will naturally patina to a soft grey. The aging process takes a long time with this finish, but is very beautiful. The sling swivels are mounted on the left side of the gun; one on the butt stock and one on the barrel.

The Henry barrel has an integrated magazine tube, so to load it the follower must be pulled all the way up, the top sleeve portion turned towards the follower stop screw on the outside of the barrel, and the rifle should be loaded while canted to some degree.
