Anyone need a spare lever?

Post by Stets » Sat Feb 18, 2023 5:55 pm

So, the lever on my HO10 was rusting a bit not matter how cleaned or oiled I kept it. Called Henry, sure, no problem, get one out soon.
They did, but it ain't for a 45-70. Could be a rimfire lever maybe? Small loop. Not sure what it fits.
If you want it, it's yours.

I saw a BB-23 lever for sale in EBay and the seller said he removed it from his H012 which I believe it the Big Boy Steel. If so, I’ll take your lever as I have a large loop on my 41 and I like the look of the small loop better. So to pay it forward I’ll offer up my large loop here once I receive your lever and make sure it works with my rifle. I’ll send a PM.

Thanks.

When looking through the BB part list in the Owner's Manual (2018), the lever is #23.

Re: Anyone need a spare lever? UPDATE

Update. Stets sent me this lever for my Big Boy but it didn’t fit it either. Interesting the bag is marked BB-23 which is for a Big Boy and the instructions inside are for the installation of a large loop lever which this one clearly is not. Understand both a standard and a large loop lever will interchange but this seems to be a miss match of bag, instruction and lever. The screw head is slightly smaller in diameter than my Big Boy screw, .026 and .027. Stets is probably right that it will fit a rimfire. It will not lock up when installed in my Big Boy.

So….. if anybody wants to give this unit a try PM me your address and I’ll mail it to you.

Sounds like a plan. Is it possible to mail it across the border or better yet if you’re coming by I could meet you out on the highway.
