Marlin 1895 GBL Features

The Marlin 1895 GBL - “Guide, Big Loop” is a compact lever-action rifle that is built with a 19 inch barrel topped with a hooded front sight post and elevation-adjustable rear sight.  The receiver is drilled and tapped in order to accept an optics rail that allows you to mount a scope, but make sure you put one on that can handle the recoil of a .45-70 cartridge.  The barrel of the gun has a 11/16-24 thread at the muzzle which allows you to attach a compensator to aid in taming the recoil.

Ergonomics
The marlin 1895 GBL is designed to be handy as well as comfortable.  The forend is checkered to provide a very decent grip and has contours that are comfortable for almost all hand sizes.  The stock includes a half-pistol grip with more checkering and a large-loop action lever that allows the user to comfortably carry and operate the gun when wearing gloves.

Marlin 1895 GBL Fit & Finish

Marlin’s firearms are made by Sturm, Ruger & Co. and that means that all of the metal components are heat treated to an incredible hardness.  This increases its durability against wear as well as rough handling.  The GBL has a stock and forend that is made of laminate wood sealed in a matte clear coat which is incredibly durable ensuring that the pieces remain intact over years of heavy recoil.
