Classic lever-action carbine in .327 Federal Magnum with 16.5" octagonal barrel, large loop lever, American walnut furniture, and polished brass receiver. Compact 35" overall length ideal for brush hunting.
The Henry Big Boy Carbine represents a modern interpretation of the classic lever-action rifles that built America. This is a serious hunting and sport shooting platform dressed in authentic Western styling.
The carbine configuration delivers what matters most: quick handling in tight spaces without sacrificing power or accuracy. At 35 inches overall and 7.76 pounds, this rifle balances maneuverability with substantial capability. The 16.5-inch octagonal barrel—nearly a pound lighter than its full-size counterpart—makes this an ideal brush gun for hunters working dense cover or tight quarters.
The large loop lever is not mere decoration; it's functional design that allows gloved operation and rapid cycling. The action is crisp and smooth, a hallmark of Henry's manufacturing standards. A transfer bar safety ensures secure carry and handling.
Iron sights are traditional and effective: a fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight with reversible white diamond insert pairs with a brass bead front sight. Both are properly positioned for the .327 Federal Magnum's ballistics. The rifle is drilled and tapped for scope mounting using Henry's Gen 2 mount system, allowing modern optics integration without compromising the classic profile.
American walnut furniture—straight-grip stock and forearm—is accented with a brass barrel band and Henry's signature polished hardened brass receiver. The blued octagonal barrel completes a rifle that looks as good as it shoots. This is authentic American manufacturing, not a compromise.
This is a rifle for those who understand that quality lever-actions remain among the most reliable and capable hunting platforms ever designed.
