Very solid 1972 made Marlin 1895 45-70 with straight grip stock, uncheckered walnut. 22" barrel with original sights. No extra holes in wood. The metal has bluing wear at the muzzle and very light freckling in places on the barrel and receiver. The wood has scattered hunting dings and scratches. Overall still looks nice, but has been hunted. This is one you would not be afraid to take afield. Now the good. The wood to metal fit is excellent. The barrel is indexed properly and it functions perfectly. This one is put together much better than anything that Marlin is making today. It is in a different class. Is has a serial # just under 9000 so it has the modified micro groove rifling. It also wears Weaver scope bases and currently has a clean Leupold M8 3x duplex mounted.
$735 for the rifle and scope bases only
$885 for the rifle and Leupold 3X already mounted
Add $25 if ffl to ffl required
I am working on getting some pics, but it may be a day or so

Super cool gun here and a great, top notch seller here!

If someone wants the rifle without the scope I would like to take a look at it. If it is the long 3x that I think it is, I will be interested. I will keep an eye out for the pictures. Robert

Plan on keeping the scope if it does not sell with the rifle.
