Hey all- I just picked up a Marlin GBL in 45-70. The previous owner had outfitted it with Rangerpoint Precision sights and a trigger. https://rangerpointstore.com/m...-weight-remove-flop/ I have to say, I'm impressed. The sights are good, longer sight radius and fiber optic. Easy to pick up. The trigger is shockingly good. It breaks cleanly between 3.5 and 4 lbs (according to my finely calibrated booger picker). It's no Wilson 1911 trigger, but better than a 150 yd 45-70 deserves. Keep them in mind, if you're look for some accessories for your Marlin. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | ||

Their trigger in Marlin 1894 is nice, too. ____________________ | |||

I’ll have to take a look. I have been eyeballing the Wild West Happy Trigger Kit with the Gold Nitride trigger. https://www.wildwestguns.com/p...it-in-gold-titanium/ ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad.

Year ago, they also did custom work on Marlins. I had a Marlin SBL chambered in 45-70 that I was not very happy with. So I sent it off to RPP for some work. I had them do their accuracy package, work on the trigger and smooth up the action. I was very pleased. The first picture is the best pattern I could get from my Marlin before I sent it out. The second picture is my first or second group after they worked on it. For reference, I am shooting at 50 yards with some HSM hard cast loads. Needless to say, I am a fan of their shop.   __________________________ | |||
