The Big Horn Armory Model 89 SpikeDriver Carbine brings the .500 S&W Magnum to a compact, purpose-built Browning-type lever action. It combines an 18-inch, button-rifled stainless barrel with a Hunter Black nitride-finished stainless receiver and durable laminated wood furniture. A Skinner receiver-mounted aperture rear sight, ramp front blade, large-loop lever, and a 6+1 tubular magazine complete this U.S.-made carbine.
Designed specifically around the .500 S&W Magnum, this carbine delivers robust construction and straightforward handling. The grey/black laminated stock features practical enhancements including checkering, a pistol-grip profile, and a recoil pad, while the 13.75-inch length of pull supports a comfortable shoulder fit.

This Model 89 SpikeDriver Carbine uses a Browning-type lever action engineered specifically for the .500 S&W Magnum. The large-loop lever provides ample clearance for confident cycling, and the 6+1 tubular magazine maximizes on-board capacity for this hard-hitting cartridge.
