Big Horn Armory has introduced its first tactical lever-action rifle, the Model 89 Black Thunder (89BT) — optimally sized, perfectly configured and chambered in powerful the .500 S&W Magnum. With its short 16.25-inch barrel, it is a quick-handling, rapid-shooting carbine that is perfect for hunting, home defense and survival applications. The Model 89BT features stainless-steel construction, heat-treated and coated with a black nitride finish, making it nearly impervious to corrosion. It also features an energy-absorbing 1-inch-thick Pachmayr Decelerator butt pad, tank-style muzzle brake and fiber-optic front sight. MSRP: $2,899. Contact: www.bighornarmory.com
