SHOT Show 2025 DAY 2 Highlights — New Rifles
We are now on Day Two at SHOT Show 2025 in Las Vegas. There are huge crowds visiting the thousands of display booths in the “miles of aisles”. Over 52,000 people have registered for the event. This year’s SHOT Show encompasses two facilities — the Venetian Expo AND the new Caesars Forum. Combined, these facilities provide over 830,000 net square feet of exhibit space. The two trade show halls are connected by an elevated walking bridge.

Today, as part of our Day Two coverage of SHOT Show 2025, we are featuring videos and image of new rifles from SIG Sauer, Savage, and Smith & Wesson. It’s just a coincidence all three companies start with the Letter “S”. Other major manufacturers, including Beretta, Bushmaster, FN, Remington, Rossi, Sako, and Tikka also have many new guns on display at SHOT Show 2025.
Interesting New Rifles at SHOT Show 2025
SIG Sauer Spear DMR in 6.5 Creedmoor
At SHOT Show 2025, SIG Sauer unveiled the Spear DMR, a 6.5 Creedmoor Designated Marksman Rifle with 20″ barrel and fully adjustable, folding stock. While not yet available commercially, SIG Sauer has suggested this rifle may offered for sale later this year. In its product review, GunsAmerica notes: “The SIG Spear DMR features a fully adjustable and folding stock… nearly identical to the SIG Cross rifle stock, this version utilizes a different angled mount while maintaining the same ultra-light construction. The stock includes precision adjustments for both the cheek riser and length of pull[.] Its folding design … makes the rifle more compact for discreet transport or storage without compromising functionality or ergonomics.”
Smith & Wesson Model 1854 Stealth Hunter
The Smith & Wesson Model 1854 Stealth Hunter combines a traditional lever-action rifle design with modern upgrade. Features include an extended Picatinny rail for optics, an M-LOK equipped fore-end, a Hi-Viz H3 front sight, and an adjustable ghost ring rear sight sourced from XS Sights. Available calibers are .45 Colt, .44 Magnum, and .357 Magnum.
The 16.3-inch 410 stainless-steel (with a threaded muzzle) has a twist rate of 1:16, the receiver is forged 416 stainless steel, and the fore-end, which has 15 M-LOK slots, is aluminum with a hard-coat anodized finish. The black synthetic stock has textured grip panels. The rifle also has a large loop operating lever and a manual cross-bolt safety. See this rifle at the Savage Booth #12427.

The carbon-fiber-wrapped 22-inch Proof Research barrel also saves weight. A three-round AICS-style mag, dual extractors, and muzzle brake facilitate quick follow-up shots.
