Henry Rifle 1st Model, Cal. .44 R.F.
SOLD
Description: Excellent, all matching 1st Model Henry Rifles are difficult to find in this condition. This gun, serial number 1603, has survived with only minimal signs of use. It may well have seen service in the Civil War as most early ones did, but it does not have U.S. inspector's stamps. Many of the early production guns were sold by B.Kittredge & Co., Cincinnati, OH., to Mr. George D. Prentice, editor of the Louisville, KY newspaper that became the Courier Journal. While not a fan of Abraham Lincoln, he supported the Kentucky Home Guard and purchased 300 Henry Rifles for them. This gun has an excellent bore, a crisp, tight action and excellent wood. All parts are original and serial numbered to match, including the buttplate screws. It has the early rear sight dovetail in the receiver, the perch belly stock, and sling swivel mounts on the left side of the butt and the barrel. It still shows traces of bright blue finish on the protected areas of the barrel and the stampings and edges are sharp. All in all, a very nice, original Henry.
