Product details

REINTRODUCING THE MARLIN® MODEL 1895 TRAPPER LEVER-ACTION RIFLE

Based on the same platform as the Marlin 1895 SBL, the Marlin 1895 Trapper boasts a shorter, more maneuverable 16" 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.
