Our commitment to craftsmanship, innovation, and an unyielding passion for firearms has sustained us throughout our history, and today, we are thrilled to share with you a piece that encapsulates the essence of our brand—the Smith & Wesson Model 1854 Limited Engraved Edition.

The lever-action rifle, an icon in its own right, holds a special place in the hearts of firearm enthusiasts worldwide. Since its inception, the distinctive lever-action mechanism has been a symbol of reliability and versatility. Today, as we unveil our latest creation—the Smith & Wesson Model 1854 Series—we pay homage to this enduring design while seamlessly blending it with modern engineering, offering you a firearm that is as much a work of art as it is a formidable tool.

If they had matching number sets that's were less fancy, not gold inlaid, I'd be tempted to buy them. And sell my Winchester 94 Trapper and Contender pistol to help pay for them. My 75th Anniversary Walther PPK could go too. I don't need anything this fancy looking and I don't have any heirs to leave it to. It looks like these pics I found online. Actually the slide looks scuffed up in 2 of these pics and mine doesn't
