VIKING ARMS ANNOUNCES UK DISTRIBUTION OF THE NEW SAVAGE REVEL CLASSIC AND REVEL DLX RIFLES

Viking Arms, exclusive UK distributors of Savage Arms, has announced the launch of the all-new Savage REVEL Classic and REVEL DLX rifles – two lever-action rimfire models that blend traditional styling with modern innovation, purpose-built for the UK’s gallery and target shooting community.

The Savage REVEL series merges the nostalgic appeal of classic lever-action design with the advanced features demanded by today’s precision shooters. Available in .22LR, .22WMR, and .17HMR, both models are in stock now and available from authorised Viking Arms dealers nationwide.

SAVAGE REVEL CLASSIC

RRP: £650 inc. VAT

Timeless. Reliable. Built for pure shooting enjoyment.

Featuring a satin-finish walnut stock, medium-profile carbon steel barrel and a smooth-cycling lever action, the REVEL Classic offers a nostalgic yet highly functional shooting experience. Key modern enhancements include a quick takedown system for easy transport, a drilled and tapped receiver for optics, and an oversized lever loop for improved handling.

Key Features:

The Savage REVEL Classic combines timeless styling with practical features tailored for the modern shooter. At the heart of the rifle is a smooth and reliable lever-action mechanism, delivering consistent cycling shot after shot. Designed with portability in mind, the REVEL Classic features a quick takedown receiver, allowing for easy transport and convenient storage.

Its satin-finish walnut stock lends a traditional aesthetic, while the oversized lever loop ensures comfortable operation, even when wearing gloves. For those looking to mount optics, the receiver is drilled and tapped, offering straightforward compatibility with scope bases. The rifle is equipped with adjustable iron sights for precise aiming, a mediumprofi le carbon steel barrel for balanced performance, and a crossbolt safety for secure handling in the field or on the range.

SAVAGE REVEL DLX

RRP: £820 inc. VAT

Classic feel. Modern comfort. Threaded for versatility.

The REVEL DLX enhances the traditional lever-action platform with a suite of upgraded features. A pistol grip walnut stock with stippling, threaded barrel for suppressor use, and a rubber butt pad for recoil management combine to offer greater comfort and control. Like the Classic, it features a quick takedown system and optics-ready receiver — making it a premium option for shooters who demand performance and portability.

Key Features:

The Savage REVEL DLX is engineered with a range of features that enhance both performance and user comfort. At its core is a lightweight aluminium receiver that reduces overall weight without compromising durability. The rifle’s quick takedown mechanism allows for fast and simple disassembly, making it ideal for transport and maintenance. A threaded barrel with a 1/2x28 pitch adds versatility for those wishing to use a suppressor or other muzzle device.

The REVEL DLX also includes a smooth-operating lever action with an oversized loop, ensuring ease of use even when wearing gloves. The receiver comes drilled and tapped, ready for the addition of an optic, while the satin-finish walnut stock features a pistol grip and stippling for improved ergonomics and control. A rubber butt pad offers effective recoil absorption, making extended range sessions more comfortable. Completing the package are adjustable iron sights, a medium-profile carbon steel barrel for balanced accuracy, and a crossbolt safety for secure handling.

“We’re thrilled to bring the Savage REVEL Classic and DLX to UK shooters,” said Andy Norris, Head of Sporting Sales at Viking Arms. “Whether you’re on the gallery range or plinking in the field, these rifles are designed to perform. With their combination of heritage aesthetics, modern functionality and Savage Arms’ renowned build quality, they offer exceptional value to rimfire enthusiasts.”
