Manufacturer: Marlin Type: Lever-Action Rifle Model: 1895SS Caliber: 45/70 GOV'T Barrel Length: 22" Optics: Bushnell ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 3971 S/N: 03022207 Ref #: P16051905 Notes: A Marlin 1895SS chambered in .45-70 Government with a 22" barrel and lever-action operation. Well-regarded for hunting and field use, offering substantial power in a traditional repeating-rifle platform. This lever-action rifle features a metal receiver and barrel assembly paired with a checkered wood stock and forearm. The sighting system includes a Bushnell riflescope mounted above the receiver, along with barrel-mounted iron sights. Controls and functional elements include an exposed hammer, large-loop lever, right-side loading gate, side-ejection action, tubular magazine, and cross-bolt safety. Known for its heavy bullet weights, penetration, and terminal performance, the .45-70 Government cartridge is suited to hunting medium and large game at practical field distances. Recoil and trajectory vary significantly with the selected ammunition and load level. Accessories include the mounted Bushnell riflescope with mounting base and rings. Condition appears fair overall, with heavy scratches, dents, abrasions, and finish wear across the wood stock and forearm. The receiver, barrel, magazine tube, lever, and scope show moderate surface wear, discoloration, and scattered marks consistent with regular use. The stock finish is notably worn through in several areas, and the recoil pad displays additional age-related and handling wear.
