Very cool. Street price under $1k and chambered in 357/38spcl and I'm in.
I just got one of these. Dry firing it feels great, i'm excited to take it to the range!
Very cool. Smith&Wesson knocking it out the park again. Love to see this in a 45-70
I handled S&W's lever gun at SHOT 2024, and it felt... just right! 😃
Cycling was FAST! The action made all the right sounds, and it felt good with no hiccups or unexpected interruptions. It's chambered in a great caliber suported with the right barrel length, meaning there is enough energy to put most things on planet Earth into the dirt fast.
I found the weight and dimensions perfect for a handy carry companion in the woods... or around the house if pressed into that duty. The M-LOK slots were in the right spots, too.
I do like the integrated peep sight, and the sights in general are very nice! I would like to see the integrated M1913 rail to be just a few slots longer. That being said, the integrated rail is sweet - kudos to the engineering team 👍
Another wish is that I would of liked to see a solution for carrying additional ammunition on-board the gun... but I'm sure S&W's product development team has that accessory in their roadmap.
In conclusion, the gun doesn't feel cheap. I'm likely buying one. Well done, S&W.
Nice that you got a chance to handle it. See - I'm not making this stuff up! :)
Great review! Looking forward to seeing the line expand with other offerings.
Great commentary with excellent images. Thank you!
Thank you too!
Fit and finish seems very well done.
I hear you about the weather. Here in NCC it felt like I was in one of those penguin nature shows at the South Pole. But warmer temps later this week. In the 60s maybe.
S&W trying to compete with the Henry Big Boy X.
Sheesh, an expensive Henry knock-off!
Thank you. Hoping to see more on this carbine.
You will for sure. I had horrible luck with the ability to spend range time with it, and only had a short time available. I'll get it back out for more thorough testing and a lot more fun just as soon as I can!
Love the review. As a S&W guy I had no idea they had this rifle. As a South Floridian I got cold just watching this video. haha
I just want more modern revolvers man. A 4 inch Frame, more 8 round models, red dot ready revolvers?
I’m sure they realized there is currently a high demand for lever actions and wanted to get in on the action.
Same and in 9 mm. I think this new lever gun is cool, though.
I just want S&W to produce a modern Third Model Schofield top break revolver. Not just do a reissue.
It’s an interesting rifle to be sure, thanks!
Great review. Great caliber. Love lever actions. Love more choices. But this just...
Your talking background reminds me of Creepshow 1982. So kewl!
Hey ! At least they made it in the right caliber. Props to S&W for recent innovations. Fine video Justin.
Thanks! Agree that .44 Mag was the best way to introduce the gun!
Meh if it was .357 mag I'd buy it.
I'm very excited about this, but I am hoping for some other calibers.
Wow, I like it!😮
Let's have the 16" version.
As much as I want one, that price is nuts!... I really like S&W, but I can get the job done a lot cheaper than $1300 bucks. Maybe if the rest of life didn't cost so much, I think I could have afforded it a few years ago.
I’ll just keep my Henry all weather it’s a true work horse. I’m not happy with how smith Wesson are sending out the guns lately I got 3 revolvers in December sad how they came
For those who care, the LOP according to S&W is between 12.-13" vs the Henry Model X's 14". I just got off the phone with both and Henry has no plans for a shorter LOP though you can order wood furniture for it for about $150 and cut it down yourself. Since the Henry Model X is their only center-fire with a factory threaded barrel and this 1854 comes with it with a shorter LOP, this appears to be a pretty good deal.
I was going to measure LOP for the next installment. I'm not a big guy, and I can tell you that I really appreciated how comfortable this thing is to shoulder and shoot.
I'm 5'7", and I found the LOP just fine.
Or just change the recoil pad and sand down until you have a preferred LOP
Looks great, looking forward to seeing you wring it out. I would love to see this in.357 Magnum.
i guess S&W realized they made a mistake not acquiring Marlin.........
Is it offered in 500 s&w mag?
What is the other calibers and will they go big bore like 30-30 and 45-70
Love that they went with the feed tube and side gate like Hennry.
Only thing I'd like to see is a standard barrel mount rear site so you can go with a traditional style see thru scope mount like most lever guns did back in the day.
Also, need a 327 version
Lovely rifle 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍
Is the picatinny rail removable?
You need a short length of deer antler to push that last round past the loading gate. Save your fingers! Wrap some leather around the big end for a grip. Looks extra cool and works like a charm.
Great suggestion!
You can also use another cartridge to push the last one all in, seems simpler than carrying some length of antler
I am curious as to whether Smith and Wesson manufacturers these or subs them out to Henry.
Please tell me the rifling twist rate is 1:20…okay you said it is! Thanks!
Interesting rifle. You and Honest Outlaw both with reviews today. How do you think this compares to a Henry 44 lever? The Henry with the optional tube loading is nicer for those COLD days. Also....where are the dang pump-action rifles? A pump-action 44 carbine? Yes please...
Tube loading option would have been nice indeed! But I do have to say that the side gate was not nearly as tight as I expected it to be - but in the frigid temps I only loaded five at a time - so I still have to test it out with full spring tension.
Justin I completely understand about cold weather. I was wondering about gloves used for shooting. I have some cheap ones from Harbor Freight and they work okay, but I'd never wear them in sub freezing weather. Any recommendations? Thanks.
It's a conundrum. To shoot, you need thin, tight gloves - which will not keep your fingers warm. If I have to use shooting gloves due to the cold, I also use hand warmers and in between "takes" warm my hands in my pockets. For wildlife photography and other outdoor activities, I have really thick insulated gloves with finger cutouts and mitten covers so I can still work controls.
Nice nice
I'd like to see this in 45-70!! Hopefully coming soon??
❤
I'm surprised they don't make it into 460 Smith& Wesson Magnum also
Y'never know....
🇺🇸
I am all for more competition, I wish them well with this marlin knock-off. I hope it drives prices lower and availability higher. The cross-bolt safety is something they didn’t need to copy, it makes me sad.
I hope S&W manufacturers this in 30-30
Can you put a scope on it and see how it groups at 100 yds ? Thanks
Definitely planning to do that.
What caliber of bullet does this rifle have?
Does your trigger have a lot of play while cocked? Scootch’s looked to have a solid 1/2” of free play while cocked, which seems like a very odd design decision. It might make/break it for me
The trigger "dangles" when you work the action and does have a loose feeling and some play in it. Once you move it past the take-up, it tightens up to a firm/crisp break. It is an odd characteristic, but does not seem to have much impact. I'll test and demo this in more detail in the next video.
Lemme get this in 10mm.
Before anyone starts with some nonsense about rimless cartridges not working in tube magazines and lever actions, see the gazillion lever guns in 35 Remington.
You can get this in 44mag 357mag 45 colt
Only available in 44mag at this time.
Honestly from a blue collar stand point. First the price of 44mag is ridiculous n second if i along with most IMOO am gonna spend $1200 on a lever gun ill go for the new Marlin by Ruger or a Henry n i think most people gonna go for the .357/.38 over the .44. Just my opinion n i know they all stink. Lol
RAD!
Wonder why they didn't come out with a forty five seventy45.70
Anyone actually seen one of these for sale? I haven’t
Leather strap that lever & it’s on!!!
wow that thing has almost no recoil !
That was my first impression too. Then I remembered I was wearing about 12 layers of clothing and figured maybe that was it. Looking forward to feeling it with lighter clothes, but it really does feel like a soft shooter.
Got mine earlier last week finally, & less than 100 rounds spent & every screw fell loose., you sound alot like Pure piad programming. , it's too late for an honest review, it's already in my hands. 😅
Can you specify exactly what and which screws came loose?
$1200.00 for a lever gun is uh a lot. Just about any other lever rifle is cheaper. That's the thing I do not like about S@W, they want premium for anything and everything they put out. Brand new ,but they want top tier for it. That's why I always go with proven dependability for less. Like Henry or Winchester or Marlin. I'll pass on this one.
400 legend anyone Bueller? Bueller? anyone
Come on. 44 is so expensive only reloaders can use it
At least its not a .45-70. Factory ammo costs $2 a round.
New and different? Not
Another rifle with the tube that is shorter than the barrel I don’t understand it. It doesn’t look right
That's a traditional profile for a carbine with a tubular magazine. Also, it helps keep one's hand from passing in front of the muzzle.
This rifle has a threaded barrel so it has to extend past the tube to use a shusher.
@@hillbillync655 thank you .
Great more way over priced lever action rifles
