Destined to be a top choice of lever-action enthusiasts and guides alike, this model delivers the massive punch of a 45–70 Gov’t. with unmatched speed – with the lethal assurance of a 6–round capacity thanks to a full–length magazine tube.

Rapid target acquisition comes natural with its 19" barrel and adjustable Ghost Ring Rear Sight and Fiber-Optic Front. The big loop lever on the 1895SBL adds a distinctive traditional style while promoting sure follow-up shots, even with gloves.

The Model 1895SBL also features the durability of a grey/black laminated stock and a stainless steel finish on all major metal components.

(4 out of 5) A T-Rex killer for sure
by from London, Ohio on

I bought one back in December 2016 and it is an awesome rifle. Ive had zero issues with it and its a tack driver! The action is smooth and fit and finish is excellent. This gun will shoot any 45-70 ammo on the market and so buyers should be aware that recoil can be very strong but it will kill anything on the American continent. This gun is a great alternative to buying a shotgun for deer, bear or hogs, in States where high powered rifles are not allowed such as here in Ohio but straight walled cartridges are.
