XS Sights, Lever Rail Mount, Fits Henry .45-70 with Round Barrel, Anodized Finish, Black - HN-6000R-N - 647533007979
Product Description
Modernizing a classic lever-action rifle for scout scopes, traditional optics, or red dot sights often runs into severe mounting constraints. Factory receiver tapping places standard scope rings too far rearward for long-eye-relief optics, while short receiver rails lack the physical real estate required for modern tactical red dots and magnifier combinations. The XS Sights Lever Rail Mount for Henry .45-70 round barrel rifles (HN-6000R-N) solves these optic placement limitations by extending a full-length, lightweight Picatinny rail along the receiver and rear barrel section.
Precision-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in a tough matte black hardcoat anodizing, this extended rail provides a rigid, non-yielding optic platform built to handle heavy .45-70 Government recoil impulses. The extended Picatinny slot layout allows shooters to position long-eye-relief scout scopes, red dot optics, or compact variable power scopes at the ideal eye relief distance, improving target acquisition speed and eye placement on the stock.
Engineered explicitly for Henry .45-70 rifles equipped with round barrels, the HN-6000R-N attaches cleanly utilizing factory receiver tapped screw holes and front barrel band/dovetail contact points without requiring permanent gunsmith modifications. Upgrade your lever gun into an all-weather, optic-ready hunting and brush platform.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Direct compatibility with Henry .45-70 lever-action rifles equipped with round barrels and factory receiver scope mount tapping (e.g., Henry H010 round barrel series). Not compatible with octagonal barrel models, brass receiver models without top tapping, or non-Henry platforms.
Installation Sequence:
- Clear the firearm, cycle the action, and physically/visually inspect the chamber and tube magazine to verify an empty status.
- Remove factory plug screws from the top of the receiver using a proper gunsmith screwdriver.
- Position the Lever Rail onto the receiver and barrel aligning the factory screw hole locations.
- Apply a small drop of medium-strength blue threadlocker (Loctite 242) to the included mounting screws.
- Torque mounting screws evenly to manufacturer specifications (typically 12–15 in-lbs) starting from the receiver working forward. Verify solid rail seating before mounting optics.
