Description
Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this lever-action rifle that is jokingly specified as “appropriate for hunting T. Rex” on the manufacturer's website, as it was used against one by the protagonist in Jurassic World, for a penny-start auction; this is the Marlin Model 1895SBL!

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Marlin Model 1895SBL, introduced in 2009, is a premium lever-action rifle chambered in the powerful .45-70 Government, purpose-built for serious hunters and outdoorsmen operating in rugged, unforgiving terrain. It features an 18½-inch stainless steel barrel with deep-cut Ballard-type rifling for enhanced accuracy and bullet stability, especially with heavy projectiles. A 6-shot full-length tubular magazine offers ample capacity for dangerous game scenarios, while side ejection allows for easy mounting of optics without interfering with spent case clearance. The rifle is factory-equipped with XS Ghost Ring sights paired with a HiViz front post for rapid target acquisition in all lighting conditions, and also includes a scout-style Picatinny rail, giving shooters the option to mount long-eye-relief optics directly forward of the receiver.

Functionality is complemented by refined and rugged construction. The black and grey laminated hardwood stock features a fluted comb, cut checkering, and a pistol grip configuration that ensures solid handling and recoil control, even in wet or cold environments. The big loop finger lever allows for operation with gloves, while the deluxe recoil pad helps absorb the significant punch of the .45-70 round. All major metal components, including the receiver and lever, are constructed from stainless steel to provide excellent corrosion resistance. Additional touches like nickel-plated sling swivel studs and precision machining reflect the 1895SBL’s dual role as a hard-use field rifle and a standout example of modern lever-action engineering. With its powerful cartridge, practical enhancements, and durable finish, the Marlin 1895SBL continues to be a favorite among guides, hunters, and lever-gun enthusiasts alike.
