Smith & Wesson @ TFB:

The Model 1854 in .357 Magnum is available in two finishes: a modern black polymer and stainless-steel combination, or a more traditional walnut stock with an Armornite® finish for increased corrosion resistance. Both versions feature a 19 ¼-inch threaded barrel, a 10+1 capacity, and Smith & Wesson’s smooth lever-action operation. I’ve never suppressed a .357 Magnum, but that could be fun.
Standard features include a 4 ¾-inch Picatinny rail for optics, an adjustable XS Sights® ghost ring rear sight with a gold bead front sight, and a flat-face trigger. A removable magazine tube allows for safe and easy unloading.
The .357 Magnum Model 1854 adds a new layer of flexibility to Smith & Wesson’s growing line of lever-action rifles.
Some of the features include:
FLAT TRIGGER DESIGN – Allows for consistent trigger finger placement to aid in accuracy when firing.
LARGE LOOP LEVER – Increased surface area to allow for cycling the smooth action with or without gloves.
REMOVABLE MAGAZINE TUBE - Allows for easy and safe unloading of the firearm.
- 16.3" barrel with 1:14" RH twist rifling.
- 5/8 x 24 threaded barrel with thread protector.
- Aluminum M-LOK® handguard w/15 M-LOK slots.
- Black synthetic stock with textured grip panels.
- XS Sights® adjustable rear ghost ring sight.
- HIVIZ® H3 front sight.
The S&W Model 1854 STEALTH HUNTER 357 MAGNUM has a MSRP of $1399 (SKU: 14194).

Love to see a firearm manufacturer chamber a lever gun in 375 JDJ. It would be easier for Marlin,at it uses a 444 Marlin case,necked down to 375. A new barrel and a few internal parts is all it takes.
