Bond Arms®, renowned for innovative craftsmanship, proudly announces the imminent release of the LVRB lever-action rifle. Evolving from a visionary concept into a production reality, the LVRB shatters convention by seamlessly merging classic lever-action aesthetics with modern modularity and performance. Select examples from the very first full production run will be on display at the 2026 SHOT Show, with anticipated customer deliveries beginning in the second quarter of 2026.
Engineered for the contemporary shooter, the LVRB is chambered in .223 Wylde (compatible with both .223 Rem and 5.56 NATO), and features a robust platform designed for future caliber conversions, including .300 Blackout, .450 Bushmaster, and .350 Legend. Its defining feature is compatibility with ubiquitous standard AR-pattern magazines, offering unparalleled logistics and high-capacity versatility in a lever-action format.
The LVRB advances the platform with a refined short-throw lever system for rapid cycling and superior ergonomics. Safety is paramount, featuring both a cross-bolt safety and a grip safety. A full-length Picatinny rail atop the receiver and handguard provides expansive mounting options for optics and sights. By eliminating the traditional gas system, Bond Arms achieves a cleaner, more reliable action while bringing the sight axis closer to the bore for enhanced accuracy.
