Whether for hunting large game or tactical applications, the Henry SPD CRUSR rifle delivers consistent performance out of the box.

Overview

The Henry SPD CRUSR rifle is a purpose-built lever-action firearm that bridges the gap between classic design and modern utility. Chambered in .45-70 Gov’t, it offers substantial energy for medium to large game while maintaining the smooth cycling action Henry is known for. The rifle features a robust steel receiver, a threaded barrel for muzzle accessories, and a synthetic stock that stands up to harsh conditions. This is not a showpiece; it is a working tool designed for the field and the range.

Features & Specs

• Caliber: .45-70 Gov’t, offering versatile ammunition choices from light plinking loads to heavy bear defense rounds.
• Action: Smooth side-gate loading lever action with a 4-round tubular magazine capacity (plus one in the chamber).
• Barrel: 16.5-inch threaded barrel with a 1:20 twist rate, capped with a protective muzzle thread cap (standard 5/8×24 threads).
• Stock: Durable black synthetic furniture with a ventilated forend and a soft rubber buttpad for recoil management.

The Henry SPD CRUSR rifle also includes a Picatinny rail on the receiver for mounting optics, and the lever loop is enlarged to accommodate gloved hands. The trigger breaks clean at approximately 4.5 pounds, and the overall length is 35.5 inches with an unloaded weight of 7.5 pounds. This is a compact, maneuverable rifle that does not compromise on power.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the hunter who needs a brush gun that can handle thick cover and deliver decisive shots on deer, black bear, or boar. It is also for the enthusiast who appreciates the mechanical simplicity of a lever action but wants the accessory compatibility of a modern firearm. The threaded barrel makes it suitable for those who use suppressors or muzzle brakes, and the side-gate loading allows for quick topping off without unloading the tube. If you want a rifle that works reliably in adverse weather and does not require a manual of arms to operate, the Henry SPD CRUSR is a straightforward choice.
