Never crossed my mind but I'm sure the manufacturers thought about it. Maybe no demand. I rarely see lever actions at the range or in the field in my neck of the woods even though I own two myself.

Lever actions are basically what won the west, they were all wood no plastic. I think that they want to keep that certain mystic about them. I have a Winchestor 30-30 that was made in 1949, I think it is the coolest gun I own.

Before they closed the plant, Winchester was making a version of the Model 94 with a plastic (or whatever) stock. I saw one in .444 Marlin once-the buttstock didn't even fit the frame correctly, and they wanted $400.00 for it new.....
