The Midwest Industries Marlin 1894 Extended Sight System (brand part no. MI-MAR1894XRS-357) replaces the factory forend on select Marlin 1894 .357 lever-actions with a slim, ultra-rigid handguard built for optics and modern accessories. Machined from hard-coat anodized 6061 aluminum, it mounts with multiple points of contact for a wobble-free platform, and integrates a heavy-duty ghost ring rear sight with a steel front sight post, both offering a wide windage and elevation adjustment range to zero for different ammunition. Midwest Industries includes its own sight adjustment tool in the box. A full-length top Picatinny rail runs the handguard for mounting a red dot, magnified optic, light, or laser, and one 5-slot M-LOK rail section is included for side accessories. A forward-mounted sling swivel accommodates conventional hunting slings. The system is patent pending, made in the USA, and backed by a lifetime warranty. It is designed for Marlin 1894 rifles with a forward handguard cap (excluding the CB model) and is not compatible with the XS Lever Scout Mount, 336Y models, or 1894P models.
