Working with the design elements of the unsuccessful Volcanic rifle, an earlier attempt at producing a lever-action self-contained cartridge arm, Winchester plant Superintendant B. Tyler Henry designed this lever gun to handle his new .44 rimfire copper-cased cartridge. Despite only having produced somewhere around 14,000 Henrys between around 1862 and 1866, the gun was sought after by Civil War soldiers who could obtain one with a supply of ammunition. Nonetheless, this "Sixteen Shooter" proved itself in battle as well as on the frontier, and was used by many frontiersmen in the years right after the ­Civil War. It was used by Wells Fargo detective James Hume, Union Pacific Railroad and many other Old West notables, and more importantly, it paved the way for all future lever-action rifles up through modern times! Cimarron's Henry Rifle is considered by many gun savvy firearms enthusiasts as among the most handsome of all replica arms, in either the brass-framed model or the early-type Henry with the beautiful color case hardened frame, and sporting n authentically-styled, 24-inch octagonal barrel with the distinctive front-loaded tubular magazine, integrated into its shrouded barrel. The Cimarron Henry Rifle can be had in .44-40 centerfire or .45 Colt chambering, in Standard Blue, Charcoal Blue or Original Finish. Here's a museum-quality replica of a classic firearm.

Caliber Dictionary

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 44-40 Winchester (44 WCF) was introduced by Winchester in 1873 in their Model 1873 lever action. The '73, "the gun that won the West," was the first truly successful repeater, and its 44-40 cartridge was quickly adopted by other manufacturers, including both Colt and Smith & Wesson in revolvers. Using a .427-inch bullet, the standard load features a 200-grain bullet at about 1100 feet per second, producing 588 foot-pounds of energy. This is not a lot of power, but the 44-40 was probaby the most popular sporting cartridge of the 19th Century, accounting for untold amounts of game. It remained the most popular chambering in the 1892 Winchester, and was a common chambering in both rifles and handguns at least through the 1940s. The growth in Cowboy Action shooting has revived it; the 44-40 has less recoil than the 45 Colt, and serves as a common chambering for rifles and revolvers. Ammo is readily available and it is chambered to numerous reissues and reproductions. — Craig Boddington
