Henry Load Gate Lever Action Shotgun

Henry .410 lever action shotguns are light, quick to point, and now feature side loading gates for expediently topping off the magazine while in action. Six-shot tube magazines can also be loaded through the front of the tube and unloaded rapidly without having to cycle shotshells through the action. Low in recoil and report, these shotguns match the manual of arms of the centerfire Henry rifles for the instantly familiar feel. Based on blued steel-framed .45-70 lever action, these smoothbores and chambered for 2.5” shells only to enable rapid cycling with short-throw levers. Visually, they are striking: deeply blued, dark straight-grained American walnut furniture, pistol grip wrists, checkering fore and aft, sling swivel studs, and a good thick non-slip ventilated black rubber recoil pad. Two versions are offered, the full-length and the compact. Both models work well for introducing juniors to shotgunning without off-putting heavy recoil. Depending on the task at hand, they work equally well for easing in beginner shooters and filling the specialists’ game bag or clay game scorecard. Whatever your small-bore shotgun focus is, we have it covered with these fast-handing .410 Henry lever actions.
