Henry SPD CRUSR .45-70 Govt 16.5" Midnight Bronze

The Ultimate Expedition Rifle

Henry's SPD CRUSR represents a fundamental rethinking of the classic lever-action rifle for modern backcountry hunters and professional guides. This is a rifle engineered for places where failure is not an option.

Design Philosophy

The CRUSR starts with a 16.5-inch match-grade barrel of 416R stainless steel, tension-wrapped in carbon fiber for dramatic weight reduction and improved heat dissipation. This engineering approach delivers a rifle weighing just 6.7 pounds with an overall length of 35.25 inches—compact enough for brush country, light enough for high-altitude expeditions.

Proven Stopping Power

Chambered in .45-70 Government with a 4+1 capacity, this rifle delivers the stopping power that has proven itself across seven continents. The magazine tube design eliminates the cartridge cutout found on conventional Henry rifles, keeping dirt and debris out of critical mechanisms.

Durability and Finish

Protective Coatings:

• Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating on all high-wear parts: bolt body, trigger, hammer, and side loading gate
• Midnight Blue Cerakote on receiver and external surfaces
• Midnight Bronze Cerakote on M-LOK handguard and synthetic buttstock

Sighting System

The rifle features a receiver-mounted Picatinny rail with Weaver 63B hole spacing for optics mounting. Iron sights include an adjustable ghost ring rear sight and brass bead front sight for quick target acquisition in the field.

This is a rifle for serious adventurers who demand modern reliability in a classic platform.
