The Henry Side Gate Lever-Action Rifle in .30-30 Winchester is a brass-receiver lever gun from Henry Repeating Arms that adds a side loading gate to the traditional tube magazine (Henry part no. H024-3030). Introduced in 2019 as the first center-fire Henry with a side gate, the Model H024 lets you top off the magazine without taking the stock off your shoulder, or load through the removable tube if you prefer. A 20-inch round blued steel barrel, American walnut furniture and a semi-buckhorn rear sight with an ivory bead front give it classic lines for whitetail season, brush hunting and range days.
