Notes
The .30-30 chambering was added in late 2025 to a Stealth Hunter line that started in .44 Magnum. Added here to close a catalogue gap - not a 2026 release.
Background
Smith & Wesson's Model 1854 is named for the year Horace Smith and Daniel Wesson founded their first partnership - but the company had never actually built a lever-action rifle until 2024.
