What’s Included
- Smith & Wesson Model 1854 Stealth Hunter .357 Mag lever-action rifle
- Factory knurled thread protector (installed)
This Model 1854 Stealth Hunter centers on durability and weather resistance. The 410 stainless steel barrel and stainless receiver are treated with a matte black Armornite finish, providing a uniform, non-glare appearance across the rifle. At 6.5 lb and 33.3 in overall length, it remains compact and easy to maneuver while maintaining a full 8+1 capacity.
The 16.3 in barrel is threaded 5/8x24 and ships with a knurled thread protector. A 1:14 RH twist supports .357 Magnum loads, and the bore condition on this example is excellent, with sharp rifling. The removable magazine tube allows unloading without cycling rounds through the action.
Sighting equipment is robust and fast: an XS steel ghost-ring rear pairs with a HIVIZ LiteWave H3 fiber-optic front. An extended top Picatinny rail of roughly 10.5 in bridges the receiver and barrel, giving ample mounting real estate for optics or accessories as needed.
The aluminum M-LOK forend features elongated slots and circular lightening holes for accessory placement and reduced weight. Ergonomics include a large-loop lever for confident cycling, a 13.5 in length of pull with a cushioned buttpad, textured stock panels for traction, and a rear sling swivel stud. A cross-bolt safety with a red fire indicator provides a clear, simple control layout.
Made in the USA and part of the Model 1854 series, the Stealth Hunter configuration brings a modern control set and mounting options to a classic lever-action platform, finished in a subdued blacked-out treatment over stainless components.
