Big Horn Armory Black Thunder in .500 S&W

After years of classic models, Big Horn Armory is going tactical.
Based in Cody, Wyoming, Big Horn has a reputation for building stout lever actions capable of handling high-pressure rounds like the whopping .500 S&W. This newbie adds mean features to a completely blacked-out platform called the Black Thunder.

Great review Kristin, Cody is one of my favorite Wyoming towns. From eating a great buffet breakfast at the Irma Hotel, to visiting the Buffalo Bill Center Of The West and their Firearm museum, Cody has a lot to offer. I've been there several times and enjoyed myself every time I visited the town. JT

Awesome bush gun, it's on my wish list. Thank-you for the video.

I'm not a big fan of lever guns, but this one is very tempting. 👍

[@johnkolinoff8591]

Plus it's a. 500 "Smith & Wesson" win win.

[@traeucity6087]

@@johnkolinoff8591 , WHAT??? It's NOT a Smith and Wesson! Did you even watch the video? At 00:59, she says that BIG HORN ARMORY guns are "basically handmade".

I like the rifle but that's going to come way down in price you can get a 50BMG cal but I kind of money

[@traeucity6087]

Big Horn Armory has TERRIBLE Google reviews. That's disappointing, but I'm rooting for them to do better and to succeed.

[@bobjohnson1633]

Where is the recoil? My OG model kicks like shooting a 3.5" 12g magnum slug

[@arthurfleck5672]

AWESOME! Great vid.

[@christophereger1053]

Now that is one serious cowboy gun

[@Ridgerunner6.5]

Not a bad way to spend well over 3,000

[@jamesa.7604]

Love watching Kristin shoot guns. And this is a rifle I would LOVE to own. I don't hunt but I do like big bore firearms and leverguns are my favorite rifles.

[@Ruebengericht]

She is closing her eyes after every shot. Bad habit.

[@3006USMC]

So…. $2300 deposit $5000 + ….am I reading their website correctly. 😭

[@awarriorscall1]

what? that`s insane. I`ll go with a used 45-70.

Yes, a little pricey..

4699 total price without extras. 4100 ft pounds out of an 18 inch barrel.

4100 ft pounds? Never in a million years

That Levergun just went to the top of my Christmas Wish List!

[@willy4571]

you are a plus size girl and your upper body was moving a lot with the recoil, how would a 5ft 110 pound girl would handle the recoil

[@therealfilthyanimal]

Great review!!! Thank you!

That is sweet!

[@MojoDevirus]

Ohhhhhhhhhh wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice gun!

[@liamhernandez9329]

You can also throw a flashlight on there for bear protection. Or if I heard of Willder beast, come stomping through your living room!

[@shemp1howard]

Even on a Henry brass, I have had to use offset rings to bring the scope back enough to shoot naturally- with this top eject and the picatinny so far forward, I would like to see it scoped. Nice shooting- great video.

[@claypoole702]

😮 I can't wait to try this out.

It's got some horsepower.

Considerable investment for lever gun

[@hds181]

Great video, thanks. Is the metal carbon steel or coated stainless?

[@louisbabycos106]

If they only made a threaded barrel version.

[@ironmikehallowween]

I wish they would make pump actions as well. The lever actions are cool and was my first rifle, but pumps just seem superior to me.

[@Mark-uq9km]

You know, I have to agree with you. I can envision a Remington 7600 in .500 S&W. Pressure is no issue with the locking lugs on the bolt and engaged into the barrel in battery just like a bolt action. 18" or 20" barrel for a sweet and really quick handling carbine. I would consider this to be the ultimate Scout Rifle. Fear nothing!

[@golgo1348]

4K for a lever action crazy
