The Marlin 1895 SBL in .45-70 Government (brand part no. 70478) is a lever-action rifle built around a 19-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel of 410 stainless steel with six-groove rifling, giving the storied 1895 platform a weatherproof, hard-use build. Marlin threads the barrel 11/16×24 with a match-polished thread protector, machines the receiver from a 416 stainless steel forging, and fits a laminate stock, feeding from a 6-round tubular magazine. Among lever-action rifles in the lever action rifles category, the 1895 SBL favors hunters who want a fully stainless, weatherproof .45-70.
