Henry Repeating Arms Bear s Leg Features The Henry Repeating Arms Bear s Leg is built around a 13.8 round blued steel barrel with a 1:20 twist rate 5/8x24 threaded muzzle and drilled and tapped receiver ready for Weaver 63B optic mounting without additional gunsmith work. A transfer bar safety provides reliable passive drop protection while maintaining the smooth classic lever-action feel that Henry is known for delivering across its full lineup. The blued steel barrel and receiver deliver a traditional corrosion-resistant finish well-suited to hard field and backcountry use. This compact .45-70 Gov lever-action pistol features a black synthetic fixed stock with pistol grip that provides a durable weather-resistant handling solution well-suited to demanding outdoor environments. Fiber optic front and adjustable fiber optic rear sights give shooters a bright fast aiming system for quick target acquisition at hunting distances. At 6.59 lbs with a 25.10 overall length the Bear s Leg strikes a practical balance between compact pistol-format dimensions and the power and capacity of the .45-70 Government cartridge. Henry Repeating Arms has built its reputation on producing classic well-made American firearms that every enthusiast can afford embodying its motto of Made in America Or Not Made At All. The Bear s Leg continues that tradition with a purpose-built compact lever-action platform that delivers the proven stopping power of .45-70 Government in a threaded optic-ready package. It stands as one of the more unique and capable compact lever-action pistols available for backcountry hunters and lever-action enthusiasts today.
