Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. has introduced the next evolution of its lever-action rifles, the Model 1854 Stealth Hunter Series. Designed for navigating dense forests or taking aim from a distance, the new Model 1854 Stealth Hunter, available in .44 Rem Mag, .45 Colt, and .357 Mag calibers, is engineered for success in the field. Built on the traditional Model 1854 platform, these rifles feature a flat trigger design for consistent finger placement, a large loop lever for easy use with gloves, a removable magazine tube for safe and effortless unloading, and a synthetic stock with textured grip panels for improved control and feel.

In addition to the all-black Armornite aesthetic, Stealth Hunter rifles come equipped with new upgrades that enhance performance right out of the box. Key features include an extended 10.5” Picatinny rail for a broader range of optic use, a newly designed T6 aluminum fore-end with 15 M-LOK compatible slots for accessory attachments, a HIVIZ H3 fiber-optic front sight to improve visibility in both low-light and daylight conditions, and a shortened 16.3” 410 stainless-steel barrel that contributes to a lighter overall weight.

"These rifles provide reliability and precision for both hunters and shooting enthusiasts,” said Corey Beaudreau, product manager, rifles. The addition of the Stealth Hunter series to the Model 1854 lineup means that consumers can now enjoy an even wider selection of calibers, barrel lengths, furniture, and overall aesthetics that are better tailored to meet their specific needs, he added. “This collection represents a legacy meticulously designed for performance, ensuring that you can consistently perform at your best."
