The 1860 lever-action rifle refers to the Henry rifle, a revolutionary firearm designed by Benjamin Tyler Henry in 1860. This rifle played a significant role in the development of lever-action rifles and had a lasting impact on the firearms industry. Here’s a brief history of the 1860 lever gun:
Benjamin Tyler Henry, an American engineer and firearms designer, developed the Henry rifle while working for the New Haven Arms Company.
The rifle featured a unique lever-action mechanism, which allowed for rapid firing compared to traditional single-shot rifles of the time.
The Henry rifle was chambered in .44 caliber rimfire and had a tubular magazine located under the barrel. It could hold up to 16 rounds, a significant advancement over the single-shot rifles of the era. The lever-action mechanism allowed users to quickly cycle through rounds, providing a higher rate of fire.
The Henry rifle was introduced in 1860 and gained popularity during the American Civil War (1861-1865). Union soldiers appreciated its rapid-fire capabilities, but the rifle’s high price limited its widespread adoption by the military.
The Henry rifle was succeeded by the improved Model 1866, also known as the “Yellow Boy“ due to its distinctive brass receiver. The Model 1866 addressed some of the Henry’s shortcomings and featured various improvements.
The Henry rifle and its successors played a crucial role in popularizing the lever-action design, which became synonymous with iconic rifles of the American West. The lever-action concept was later refined and perfected by other manufacturers, most notably Winchester Repeating Arms Company.
The success of the Henry rifle laid the foundation for the famous line of Winchester lever-action rifles, starting with the Winchester Model 1866 and followed by the iconic Winchester Model 1873 (“The Gun that Won the West“) and subsequent models.
The 1860 lever gun, represented by the Henry rifle, marked a significant step forward in firearm technology during the mid-19th century, influencing the design of future lever-action rifles that played pivotal roles in American history and culture.
