The .30-30 Win chambering is new to the series, but most of the rifle will look familiar.
Like the existing Model 1854 rifles, this one has classic lever-gun lines, an oversized loop, six rounds in the tube, and a flat-faced trigger.
The receiver comes with a Picatinny rail so you can mount a scope or red dot. If you want to keep it old school, it also features a ghost ring rear sight and a gold bead front sight from XS Sights.
Subtle modern perks include a threaded muzzle and an M-LOK slot on each side of the forend.
This rifle joins an existing lineup that includes .357 Mag, .44 Mag, .45 Colt, and the big dog itself: .45-70 Govt. Some of those variants offer a wood stock option, but we’ll have to be happy with a synthetic stock on the .30-30 Win rifle for now.
Which 1894 would you rather see chambered for .30-30 Win next, a wood stock or a Stealth Hunter model?
Smith & Wesson lists an MSRP of $1,399 for the Model 1854 chambered for .30-30 Win.

I looked, S&W doesn't list a wood stocked 30-30.
The $3200 price tag on the Limited Edition 44mg/44 spcl is just that, special...
I compared the composite and wood .357 at Grab-A-Gun;
Wood $1400
Composite: $1200
Certainly not cheap, but the caliber matches my revolver, and I've got big paws so the large loop is a plus. And it looks like a John Wayne saddle rifle.... I'm saving my nickels and dimes!
That sounds like a lot of perfectly good reasons to expand your collection (and maybe practice your Duke impression)!
If the stock ain’t wood it ain’t no good laminate works too
Wood looks incredible on the 1854! Hold onto your wallet when you check the price tag, though.
