Savage Adds MDT-Stocked Tactical Model to Its Revel Rimfire Lever Line
Savage Arms has added a Tactical model to its Revel rimfire lever-action line for 2026, set up for optics and suppressors, American Rifleman reports. It pairs the lever gun Savage introduced in 2024 with furniture from Modular Driven Technologies.

- Barrel: An 18-inch medium-profile barrel threaded 1/2x28 for muzzle accessories such as Savage's AC22 AccuCan suppressor.
- Furniture: MDT designed the polymer skeletonized buttstock, which has an adjustable length of pull and a snap-on cheek riser, plus a textured fore-end with M-Lok slots.
- Sights: A 0-MOA Picatinny rail comes installed, along with the DLX model's elevation-adjustable U-notch rear sight and hooded front post.
- Price: MSRP is $629 in .22 LR and $659 in .17 HMR or .22 WMR.
Quick take
Writer Jeremiah Knupp places the Tactical in Savage's long lever-gun history, which began with the Model 1892 for Army trials and ran through the Model 99, dropped after production passed one million. Like the Revel Classic and DLX, the Tactical uses an external hammer with a cross-bolt safety, a steel receiver under an aluminum cover, and a takedown design that separates into two pieces when two captive push pins are pulled. Knupp describes it as a Revel adapted for modern accessories.
