The Uberti 1860 Henry Rifle Brass U342880 is a masterfully crafted reproduction of the legendary Henry lever-action rifle, chambered in .45 Colt. Invented by Benjamin Tyler Henry in 1860, this rifle introduced the revolutionary lever-action repeating mechanism, giving shooters an unprecedented combination of firepower, speed, and reliability. Today, the Henry Rifle remains an iconic symbol of American history, celebrated for its use in the Civil War, frontier expansion, and the Old West.

Historical Significance of the Henry Rifle

Benjamin Tyler Henry patented the .44 rimfire lever-action repeating rifle just before the Civil War, forever changing firearm technology in the United States. Nicknamed the “tarnation Yankee rifle that they load on Sunday and fire all week,” this rifle’s 13-round tubular magazine and smooth lever-action made it highly desirable for soldiers, frontiersmen, and pioneers alike. Although relatively few Henry Rifles saw active combat during the Civil War, their impact on firearm innovation was immense. Uberti’s faithful reproduction preserves the same performance and aesthetic appeal that made the Henry Rifle a favorite among Civil War troops and later Old West enthusiasts.
