The Mare’s Leg design, originating from a custom film prop, is engineered as a pistol under federal law due to its sub-16″ barrel and lack of a shoulder stock. The side gate mechanism is a robust addition to Henry’s action, allowing the shooter to keep the firearm in battery while topping off the magazine. This is particularly advantageous with .44 Magnum, where managing powerful recoil and maintaining readiness is critical.
