Overview
The Bond Arms LVRB (Lever-Action Repeating Bond) is a lever-action rifle that mates a traditional cocking lever to the AR-15 platform, shown in its first full production run at SHOT Show 2026 with customer deliveries beginning in the second quarter of 2026. It is built to accept common mil-spec AR-15 upper receivers, bolts, barrels, and STANAG magazines, allowing easy caliber conversion between 5.56 NATO, .300 Blackout, .350 Legend, and .450 Bushmaster. The standard configuration uses a 16-inch threaded, capped, free-floated barrel, a Magpul polymer buttstock, and a 30-round magazine, for an overall length of 39.5 inches and an unloaded weight of about 6.4 pounds. Distinctive features include an adjustable lever-loop angle, an ambidextrous and extended magazine release, an out-of-battery safety, and a grip safety.

Notes
Lever-operated AR-15; not a true tube-magazine lever gun. Caliber-convertible via standard AR uppers. A suppressed .300 Blackout pistol variant with a brace was also in development. Weight (6.4 lb / 2903 g), OAL (39.5 in / 1003 mm), and barrel (16 in / 406 mm) per launch coverage.
Background
The LVRB grafts a cowboy lever onto the AR-15, sidestepping bans on semi-automatic rifles in some U.S. jurisdictions while still feeding from 30-round STANAG magazines.
