New Marlin® MODEL 1895™ SBL Trapper Lever Action – 16.17″ Cold Hammer Forged Stainless Steel Barrel – 45-70 Gov’t Rifle
Based on the same platform as the Marlin 1895™ SBL, the Marlin 1895™ Trapper boasts a shorter, more maneuverable 16.17″ barrel, offers a bead-blasted, satin stainless finish for low glare in the field and rapid acquisition with the adjustable Skinner Sights™ receiver-mounted peep sight system.
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.
