Description
hile we are fond of the brass tradition begun by B.T. Henrys 1860 rifle, we do understand that todays hunter may prefer something a shade lighter on the mountain, and the Big Boy Steel carries on the same brush gun appeal of the brass-framed Big Boys in its overall configuration, but with upgraded features for the modern hunter, while weighing in 1.68lbs. less than its cousin.
The 7lbs. steel Big Boy hangs its 20? round barrel and checkered walnut furniture on a matte-finished blued steel frame thats drilled & tapped for optional scope mounts, and uses the same adjustable Western-style sights as the standard Big Boy, with the same sliding transfer bar safety system in its hammer. Most of the weight savings is due to the steel frame being lighter than a brass counterpart to begin with, and less steel in the thinner barrel walls than an octagon version.
To make sure the steel Big Boy stays easy on the shoulder we use a black solid rubber recoil pad. For hands-free hiking up or down, it wears sling swivel studs; and weve also added a rifle-style fore-end cap instead of the usual carbine-type barrel band.
A perfect choice for straight-walled cartridge hunting laws in Ohio, Indiana, Southern Michigan, and other areas; with its subdued no-spook-em dark finish and easy-to-maneuver dimensions, weve got that brand new deer rifle youve been looking for right here.
And, the 2015 success of the Big Boy Steel model led to the 2016 introduction of the Big Boy Steel Carbine, with the same blued frame and round barrel, this time in 16.5 length. It comes with our glove-friendly oversized lever, and a seven-round magazine capacity. Nearly a half-pound lighter, and with an overall length of 34, this is one trim partner to your favorite revolver in a matching caliber, and its a great compact trailgun on its own.
