Revolvers are not lever action firearms. Sorry- can you rephrase your question? Lever action firearms are most often rifles, rarely shotguns. A very few lever action pistols were made, but not revolvers.
I can't find any indication that they made a 30-06 lever action. I can't find any indication that they made a 30-06 lever action.
S&W never made a lever action rifle.
Your browning lever action 22 was made in 1976.
A "sniper rifle" is simply a rifle being used for sniping. As for purpose built rifles intended for use by snipers, there aren't any. The lever action would be undesirable for a sniper, who may often have to fire from the prone position, and the tubular magazines common to lever action rifles cannot accommodate modern long range cartridges which use the spitzer bullets. Although some lever action rifles which feed from a box magazine have been made, they are very rare.
Start with the markings on the gun. Is it a Winchester,Marlin,Remington,etc? What cartridge does the rifle fire? (.22,.243,30-06,30-30,8mm Mauser?) Is it single shot or magazine fed? Is it bolt action, lever action, semi-auto? When you can answer these questions, you can get an idea of when and where it was made.
Yes, they made it.
1971
600 were made
