Marlin 1894 Mad Pig | 70924 | 16.1″ Barrel | 8rd

The 1894 Mad Pig Customs Model 70924 is a modernized lever-action built with factory-installed upgrades from Mad Pig Customs and Midwest Industries. It pairs a cold hammer-forged, threaded barrel and a full-length Picatinny rail/ghost-ring sight system with a machined Midwest stock for consistent handling and contemporary ergonomics. For those fitting an optic, a low- to mid-power variable such as the Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 provides a useful balance of speed and precision without exceeding common optic budgets.

Common applications include lever-action sport shooting and medium-game field use, along with range recreational shooting and competition formats that accept modernized lever actions.

This build brings modern materials and accessory-ready features to a classic lever platform: a threaded, cold hammer-forged barrel, full-length rail and M-LOK-compatible furniture from Midwest Industries. Those features make the rifle adaptable for a wide range of sighting setups and field configurations while maintaining lever-action ergonomics.

On the range this rifle is valued for its smooth cycling and factory-installed modern controls; in the field the adjustable comb and synthetic stock help deliver repeatable cheek weld and consistent sighting with optics or iron sights. The Mad Pig enhancements target shooters who want a factory-delivered, accessorized lever action without a separate gunsmith build.
