XS Sights has introduced the XS Lever Handguard (LVR-HG) for Henry lever action rifles. Designed for modern lever-action enthusiast who want to upgrade their Henry rifle, this highly customizable handguard is equipped with six M-LOK slots on each side and seven on the bottom to accommodate a wide array of accessories. Made of aircraft-grade aluminum, the LVR-HG is rugged yet lightweight, with an aesthetically pleasing look.

The handguard’s sleek profile matches the receiver’s lines for a sturdy and seamless fit, enhancing the structural integrity of the rifle while preserving the traditional look and feel of a lever gun. The angled slot cuts are designed to dissipate heat effectively for comfort during extended shooting sessions.

“This new handguard allows Henry lever gun owners to add functional upgrades like lights, lasers, grips, and stabilizers to their rifle while staying true to the lever gun’s classic appeal,” said Jeff King, marketing manager for XS Sights.

Fits: All Henry rifle models chambered in .357 Mag/.38 Spl., .44 Mag/.44 Spl. and .45-70 Government.

Behind the Bullet: The .22 Long

If we could rewind the clock to 1871, before the .45-70 Government and .45 Colt existed, and when cartridges themselves were just establishing a foothold in the shooting world, you’d find a pair of .22-caliber rimfire designs: the .22 Short and the .22 Long. Aptly named, these cartridges would survive well into the 20th century, ultimately being conquered by the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. But in certain situations, the .22 Long cartridge still makes good sense, and actually has a few specialized applications.
