INTRODUCING THE FIRST RUGER-MADE MARLIN® FIREARM THE MARLIN® MODEL 1895 SBL - This American-made lever-action rifle was manufactured with great pride and attention to detail. You can expect the same time-honored design as the traditional 1895, combined with Ruger's trusted reputation for producing high-quality, reliable firearms.

QUALITY CRAFTED INTO EVERY RIFLE - Improved manufacturing processes create tight tolerances, resulting in a reliable, attractive rifle. Multi-layered quality control procedures, including daily function and accuracy audits and multiple inspections, result in a high-quality product.

- Receiver, lever and trigger guard plate are CNC machined from 416 stainless steel forgings.
- Barrel is made of 410 stainless steel and is cold hammer-forged which results in ultra-precise rifling that provides exceptional accuracy and longevity.
- Threaded barrel, with factory-installed thread protector, has a 11/16" x 24 pattern to accommodate a muzzle brake or other barrel accessories.
- Full-length Picatinny rail allows for the mounting of a variety of optics, including a "Scout" scope.
- Built-in, accurate sighting system with adjustable ghost ring rear aperture sight and a fiber optic dot with tritium ring front sight.
- Six-round, tubular magazine with a loading gate located on the receiver.
- Soft-rubber buttpad effectively absorbs recoil.
- Positive, push-button, cross bolt manual safety and traditional half-cock hammer.
- Reliably feeds a wide range of .45-70 Govt factory ammunition and bullet types.
- Durable, laminate buttstock and forend remain dimensionally stable in varying weather conditions.
- Sharp checkering provides an excellent grip in all weather conditions.
- Spiral-fluted, nickel-plated bolt aids smooth cycling.
- Oversized lever loop provides clearance for operation with heavy gloves.

I would put 10 stars if available. The fit and finish of the Ruger made Marlin is off the charts. I shot 10rds to get ready for deer season and im just as impressed with accuracy as quality. Thanks again kygunco

This was my first purchase from Ky Gun Co. I must say I was very thrilled to find the infamous Marlin 1895 in 45-70 Govt. It kicks like a mule, but she’s smooth. I hunted high and low for this gem and it was worth the journey.
