    Default (Made by Ruger) new Marlin model 1895 SBL

    https://www.ruger.com/news/2021-12-20.html


    Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. Reintroduces the Marlin 1895 SBL Lever-Action Rifle

    Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is pleased to announce the initial production and shipment of Ruger-made, Marlin lever-action rifles. Just over a year after acquiring the assets associated with the Marlin brand, Ruger is shipping the first Marlin model, the 1895 SBL chambered in .45-70 Govt.

    "We are excited to officially flip the switch and let our customers know that Marlin is back," said Ruger President and CEO, Chris Killoy. "Since the move of over 100 truckloads of equipment and inventory back in November 2020, our engineering team took the 1895 through a complete design and production review focused on achieving the highest quality, accuracy, and performance standards. The end result is a quality rifle, produced using modern manufacturing methods, that consumers will be sure to enjoy and proud to own."

    This first model is just the beginning of the reintroduction of the Marlin brand and illustrates the improved manufacturing processes that deliver reliable, attractive firearms. These processes will result in the introduction of additional Marlin models, calibers and variations over the coming years.

    "Being a long-time Marlin fan, I knew that we needed to take our time and make sure that our reintroduction was nothing short of perfect," continued Killoy. "From the quality of the firearm, to clear ways for consumers to differentiate Ruger-made Marlins, we focused on getting every detail right."

    Ruger-made, Marlin 1895 SBL rifles are marked with "Mayodan, NC," bear an "RM" or Ruger-Made serial number prefix, have the Marlin Horse and Rider logo laser engraved on their grip, and also feature a red and white "bullseye" on the buttstock.

    Additional models are scheduled for release throughout the coming year; specifically, other variations of the Model 1895, as well as the reintroduction of the Model 336 and Model 1894. Due to the anticipated strong demand and the limited quantity of Ruger-made Marlin lever-action rifles, Ruger encourages retailers to contact their distributors for availability and advises consumers not to leave deposits with retailers that do not have confirmed shipments.

    Better chance at a Browning since they already make one in 223.

    I currently have a Remlin 1895 SBL and absolutely love it. Crazy accurate for a 18" barrel.

    Would still buy a new one just because it's threaded.

    So how many are going to pay over MSRP for one just to say they're the first kid on the block to have it lol.

    How many are going to really over pay for an 1894 Cowboy Classic in .357 Mag when they come out? Because I'm thinking about it lol.

    I fully expected the 336 to be the first model relaunched, but nice to see we're headed the right direction. The old JM made stuff is getting insane the last couple years. 1894 will probably be on my buy list once things settle down a little.

    I'd like a .357 but with real blade front sight. I have the Skinner winged peep rear sight on my JM 1895SS and will add the wing front sight some time in the near future.
