Marlin 1895 barrel misalignment. - 04/21/19
I have a Marlin 1895 SBL 45/70 that I purchased new a few years ago. It was made after Remington took over Marlin. It has the barrel "droop" problem that I have read about. I run out of elevation adjustment with the scope. I sent it back to Marlin and they supposedly fixed it. They said the sights weren't indexed properly. That would have nothing to do with my scope adjustment. You can see with your naked eye the scope rail drop down after it clears the receiver to the barrel. I don't think they did anything to it. Do they think I'm stupid? Has anyone else had this issue? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
