Smith & Wesson enters with a modern lever action .44. with an MSRP of $1279.
Or a mere $3499 if you want walnut.

I'm too much of a cheapskate, but I expect you to be getting one of those walnut/black ones and doing a review on it.She's a beaut Clark!
IF I were to splurge on one, even then it would only be the synthetic stock!I'm too much of a cheapskate, but I expect you to be getting one of those walnut/black ones and doing a review on it.

All synthetic stocks are ugly (IMO). People buy them for one of two reasons, they are going to use the gun in the wild and don't want to have to worry about the stock, or they buy them because they are cheap. For some reason, Smith & Wesson thinks this rifle with walnut stock and Black PVD finish is worth $2200 over the price of the synthetic rifle. That's laughable. But they will sell.If they offered the walnut stock on the stainless might be interesting, that black stock is really ugly though.
That one is extra ugly.All synthetic stocks are ugly (IMO).

Marlin made a true stainless 44. You won't find one cheap these days but they are out there.I like it it. However, the only appeal over Henry and Marlin is that they are offering a .44 Mag in true stainless and not a coating. The only other stainless .44 Mag out there is the Rossi 92. Otherwise, the others have beat them to the market. Long-term support by S&W will be interesting considering how they have bailed on other product lines. TC comes to mind.
Correct. The point I was trying to make is that they don't make one currently. Rossi is the only other stinless currently made.Marlin made a true stainless 44. You won't find one cheap these days but they are out there.
I figure they are shooting for the moon . They can always run a "sale" if stock isn't movingThe wood - blued one is 3499 msrp... proves how stupid S&W is.....
