S&W New Product announcement Jan. 22 2024

[BET7]

I heard on Gun Talk and other sites that S&W would be announcing a new firearm that currently hasn't been in their catalog of firearms in their long history. January 22 is the day before the start of Shot Show 2024, and I'm guessing this could be hinting at a Lever Action rifle. It appears they may have made Lever Action firearms some time ago, but nothing recent that I can remember.

January 22. Mark Your Calendar.

I'll interested to see what they come out with.

could go either way, since they have a picture of a cowboy.....maybe a SAA revolver, like the Schofield
or a lever rifle...

still lots of revolvers guys out there.

As long as it's NOT a shotgun, then I'll be happy! I'm hoping for a short mag AR with 3-3.200" mag lengths

 

[Old_Me]

i'd still not wanna be on any waiting list for the first 1,000 to 3,000 or so.

Reintroduction of the 3rd Gen 5906,4006,1006 and 4566 with slide mounted decocker

And a 3” Model 13 like the old FBI and Secret Service gun

All under the Classic banner

Another AR or 1911 variation?

On Insta it shows a guy standing in mashy looking water on a dreary day. I'm assuming a shotgun for duck hunting. They use to make shotguns.

Yeah I got that one also.

Maybe more than one new release??? Neither of those hints/images are in the same ballpark.

did S&W (or any other gun companies) ever have a 45 Colt LC rifle..????

 

[Grayfox]

Actually, S&W started out with a lever action. Before the S&W company came to be, Daniel & Horace started out making guns with the Volcanic Repeating Pistol. It was a lever action handgun. It didn't do so well, but it did get 'em started.
I'm gonna wait and see what the new gun is. But whatever it is, you can bet that quality will be spotty and the price will be outrageous.

45 Colt rifles weren’t really introduced until like the 1970’s something about Colt wouldn’t allow rifle companies to use that chambering. Which supposedly the rim on the 45 Colt brass wasn’t as large as everything else and in 1889’s would have cause issues in rifles if the period. Why 44-40 was so popular

 

[Inusuit]

Those cartridges look to skinny to be .45 Colt. .357?

 

[papa]

New 30 super carry , single action.

Thinking it will be either a lever or single action revolver. ???

I’m thinking they’re .460 S&W.

I expect it’s going to be a lever gun in .500, .460 and .350 Legend.
