Cody, Wyo. (July 2024) – Big Horn Armory (BHA), makers of big-bore firearms, is proud to introduce the limited edition Model 89 in .500 S&W Magnum featuring Matte Stainless Steel and Maple Stock. A small quantity of these unique Model 89s featuring the Maple Stock are available now for purchase, and once stock is depleted these limited editions will be gone forever.
This is an opportunity for collectors to get their hands on the unique Maple Stock Model 89s without the traditional wait times. Maple is a strong and durable wood that is comparable in weight to Walnut but is generally light in color. It is highly prized for gun stocks due to its bright fiddle back and quilt figure.
The Model 89 with Maple Stock is proudly built in the USA, continuing the rich legacy of American firearms design and development. Built from the ground up and solidly engineered using the latest CNC technology, the Model 89 embodies the best of the old Model 86 and Model 92 lever-action rifles in a modern platform capable of handling the powerful .500 S&W Magnum. It is manufactured with 17-4 matte stainless steel precision machined and properly hardened to deliver consistent downrange performance and rugged in-the-field dependability.
The selected Maple stock and forend are fitted with integral front and stud rear sling swivel mounts. The pistol-grip buttstock has a one-inch recoil taming pad. The stock and forend are given several coats of a durable synthetic satin finish. It is equipped with aperture rear and post front sights. The large, hunter-friendly curved lever enables ease of operation, especially with gloved hands. Honoring the long tradition of great American sporting rifles, the Model 89 .500 S&W Magnum with Maple Stock provides hunters with pride in ownership and a powerful advantage afield.

About Big Horn Armory:
Big Horn Armory was founded in 2008 with the expressed intention of designing a Browning-type lever-action gun chambered in 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. The Big Horn Armory Model 89, made in America, closely follows the work of John Browning with refinements courtesy of modern metallurgy and machining capabilities. The first rifles began shipping in September of 2012 and since then, BHA has added to their big bore lineup with a Model 90 Carbine in 460 S&W, the Model 90A in 454 Casull, the Model 90B in .45 Colt, the Model 89A in 500 Linebaugh and the Model 89B in .475 Linebaugh. In 2017, Big Horn Armory took a departure from its lever-action series and developed the AR500 Auto Max, the most powerful short-range, semi-auto based on an AR .308 platform.
