In the golden era of the TV Western, Steve Mcqueen, the star of “Wanted: Dead or Alive” rode across black-and-white screens with a never-before-seen sidearm. His cut-down repeater, the Mare’s Leg, could be holstered like a revolver but fired with the speed and precision of a lever action rifle.![]()
This innovative weapon brought outlaws to justice every week – and rose to fame as the real star of the series.
The show was short-lived, but the legend of the Mare’s Leg lived on. Now, fans of classic Westerns and collectors of unique firearms can saddle up with the Henry Classic Rimfire Mare’s Leg – a lever action pistol manufactured in the spirit and style of the original.
This rimfire Mare’s Leg variant is chambered for America’s most common cartridge – .22 S/L/LR. Each Mare’s Leg wears a select, handcrafted walnut furniture set cut to a similar specification as the original. The standard large loop lever aids in rapid-fire repeating shots, and a receiver-mounted saddle ring adds some Western flair to the package.
The Mare’s Leg is a featherweight at 4.45 lbs and measures exactly 25” in overall length. Fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sights and a hooded blade front sight sit atop the 12.875” blued steel barrel, and a grooved receiver allows for easy optic mounting.
Today’s outdoorsmen value the Mare’s Leg for the same reasons Mcqueen did – it’s light, ultra-portable, quick to draw from a scabbard, and just plain fun. That’s to say, unholstering a Mare’s leg won’t make you a lawman of the Wild West, but it will certainly make you feel like one.
