Sure it's most likely a modern firing replica, but why note it as such in the title? Replica implies a NON firing weapon when put in the gun's title. And since there is no proof that it is NOT a mint condition Henry rifle (implausible as that may be) it should be listed as a Henry Rifle since that's what it is..

It's an italian reproduction of the Henry 1860, chambered for the .45 Colt. A close viewing of the movie shows Barbara loading the gun, with the rounds being too big and too pristine to be .44 rimfire, and the yellow Winchester Super X box is plainly visible in the background.

Why call the Henry rifle a replica?
Sure it's most likely a modern firing replica, but why note it as such in the title? Replica implies a NON firing weapon when put in the gun's title. And since there is no proof that it is NOT a mint condition Henry rifle (implausible as that may be) it should be listed as a Henry Rifle since that's what it is..

- What would the Henry be chambered in? I doubt it would be the .44 rimfire cartridge the original came in because I'm pretty sure that hasn't been commercially available for decades. Would it be something like .45 Colt or .44special or something?
It's an italian reproduction of the Henry 1860, chambered for the .45 Colt. A close viewing of the movie shows Barbara loading the gun, with the rounds being too big and too pristine to be .44 rimfire, and the yellow Winchester Super X box is plainly visible in the background. Ballistics_Expert2

- Not so sure it's a Stevens, that forearm looks awful more like a Stoeger, can you get some better screencaps of the side? User:RedJedRevolver
