Marlin 1895 Trapper | .45-70 Govt | 70450

The Marlin 1895 Trapper is a compact lever-action rifle built around the .45-70 Government cartridge and designed for rugged field use. This model features a stainless receiver and a black laminated fixed stock with Skinner-style peep sights for quick, repeatable sighting. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optics; a mid-power variable such as the Vortex Viper HS-T 2-7×32 pairs well for brush-to-medium-range work.

Use cases: backcountry or brush big-game hunting and close-range field work where a shorter, robust lever gun is preferred. The Trapper’s drilled-and-tapped receiver and threaded muzzle allow straightforward accessory fitment for scopes or muzzle devices.

The 1895 Trapper compresses the proven .45-70 platform into a short, durable package suitable for field carry where maneuverability matters. Its threaded barrel and drilled/tapped receiver give you the flexibility to mount a low- to mid-power optic and add muzzle devices if desired. Built with laminate furniture and stainless components, it resists the elements while maintaining the familiar lever-action feel.
