Fort Worth, Texas (April 1, 2025) – XS® Sights is pleased to introduce the XS Lever Handguard (LVR-HG) for Henry lever action rifles. Designed for modern lever-action enthusiasts who want to upgrade their Henry rifles, 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 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, XS Sights.
Fits: All Henry rifle models chambered in .357 Mag/.38 Spl, .44 Mag/.44 Spl, and .45-70.
Retail Price: $247.50
