The Marlin 1895 Dark in .45-70 Govt. is a repeating rifle that combines tradition with modern performance. It features a lever like the ones you know from western movies, but with a construction that withstands today's harsh conditions. A polymer stock, threaded barrel and M-LOK slots make this legend a tool you not only want to admire but have at hand.
The lever, bolt and reliable mechanism remain true to Marlin tradition. But everything else keeps up with the times. The nylon-reinforced polymer stock endures harsh treatment and guarantees a stable grip under all conditions. Thanks to the M-LOK slots, you can easily add a flashlight, bipod or other accessories without drilling and compromises.
The cold-forged carbon steel barrel has a 11/16"-24 thread, with a radial muzzle brake factory-installed. Need a silencer? No problem. Don't want anything? Attach the thread cap and move on. With a .45-70 Govt. caliber, this rifle is ready to handle a substantial amount of energy.
On the top, you'll find a Picatinny rail for optic mounting. If you prefer mechanical sights, you'll appreciate the combination of a fiber optic front sight with a tritium ring and an adjustable ghost ring rear sight. A clear image even in conditions where others struggle.
Recoil has strength, but not pain. This is taken care of by a soft rubber butt pad that effectively absorbs shoulder impact. And if you're using optics, the cheekpiece helps with precise shooting. The result is stability, confidence and control with every shot.
