Detailed Overview: Historic Elegance Meets Competition Power

The Uberti 1860 Henry .45 Colt Brass Receiver Lever Action Rifle is more than just a piece of living history—it is a competition-proven repeater built for modern shooters. Originally dubbed the “sixteen-shooter” during the American Civil War, the Henry rifle gave soldiers an unprecedented tactical advantage. Uberti’s faithful reconstruction preserves every distinctive contour while adapting the firearm for modern reloading and target shooting standards.

Legendary Brass Receiver & A-Grade Walnut Finish

The defining aesthetic feature of this rifle is its striking brass receiver. Polished to a high sheen and accented by an authentic brass buttplate, it creates a vivid contrast against the dark blued steel octagonal barrel. The buttstock is crafted from hand-selected A-Grade walnut, offering refined wood grain patterns that elevate this rifle from a standard firearm to a prized heirloom piece.

Engineered for N-SSA & Cowboy Action Competition

Whether you are competing in North-South Skirmish Association (N-SSA) matches or Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) events, the Uberti 1860 Henry excels on the firing line. The 24.25-inch barrel provides an extended sight radius for precise shot placement using the standard open iron sights. The forward-heavy balance stabilizes the rifle during rapid lever cycling, minimizing muzzle rise and keeping you locked onto your target.

Modern Practicality & Smooth Lever Action

While the original 1860 models fired the long-obsolete .44 rimfire cartridge, this model is chambered in .45 Colt. This update gives shooters the flexibility to run factory cowboy loads or custom handloads. With a generous 13+1 round tube capacity, the smooth under-lever mechanism feeds rounds fluidly into the action for effortless repeating firepower.
