Savage Arms is releasing two new rifles to its rimfire lineup, the Revel Classic and the Revel Dlx. Unlike the other rimfire rifles from Savage, these two new guns are takedown lever-action rifles and bring a new perspective to the classic lever-action rimfire rifle.
Revel’s lever-action mechanism is engineered for smooth and reliable cycling, with a crisp trigger for better accuracy. Both rifles are easy to take down without the use of specialized tools, making them easy to store and easy to carry with you in the field. The simple disassembly also means it’s easy to maintain and clean these rifles, which in turn improves their longevity and reliability.
“Savage Arms proudly introduces the Revel Classic and Revel Dlx as we expand into another new category for the brand and company,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage Arms. “These firearms combine cutting-edge features with the timeless appeal of a classic lever action rimfire rifle. Fun and convenient, the takedown capabilities mean precision and reliability are as portable and versatile as ever.”
The rifles in the Revel lineup have a crossbolt safety feature, and the Dlx line sports an upgraded, contoured-walnut stock with intricate stippling for superior grip and comfort. The Revel Classic, on the other hand, has a walnut stock with a classic straight grip. There is rubber butt pad on both rifles for a more comfortable shooting experience as well as reduced recoil and more control.
The oversize lever loop of the Revel line creates more comfort and allows the use of the rifle in all sorts of weather, while the receiver is drilled and tapped so you can mount your choice of optic to the rifle. The rifles also have adjustable iron sights and a medium-profile, carbon-steel barrel.
The Revel line is launching with the Revel Classic in .22LR, and more options, such as rifles chambered in .17HMR and .22WMR as well as Dlx-style rifles will be launching in the coming months. Visit savagearms.com for more information on these new guns and other products from Savage Arms.
