    45-70 has to be one of the hardest hitting rounds out there. lever actions will always be cool.

    My first lever gun was a shortened (16 1/4") magnaported 1895 45/70. Forty years later still my go to gun for tromping in the Alaska bush.
    Handy in the canoe and on the hike.

    I loved my 1895 Marlin. My dad had a Phelps 45-70 revolver that I would carry in the mountains but it was a first year productions that he bought in 1977. I really didn't want to take the chance of beating it up. This was is 1998 and I was working at a gun shop/shoot range. A used Marlin came around so I bought it. It was a slight problem I had most my check was going for antique firearms. It was the best mountain Firearms I have ever had.

    Awesome gun. I have an 1895G model. Super hard hitting powerhouse round. Keep the lead flying hickock. Great videos.

    The part one for this rifle was the first video from Hickock I watched and the first gun video I saw on YT many years ago. This rifle made a big impression on me, it is such a neat little bruiser of a gun.

    Hickok, I'm glad you educated us about the location of "laminate trees". Maybe I could acquire some "laminate saplings" and start a tree farm!👽💥🔫....󾓦😸󾓦

    I bought a Winchester Trapper in .44 mag around 2003, then a few months later they announced they were closing. I am so happy I got it and for a really good price.

    I was looking over the fit and finish of that rifle as your camera drew closer to it. I had the feeling that it was NOT made after 2008 at the Remington Outdoors factory in New York State. You stated that it is a JM Stamped Marlin and that makes it a genuine Marlin rifle. THAT is a beautifully made firearm. I'd guess it can only go up in value.

    I got one years ago as a birthday present. Installed a big loop, a Williams peep sight and leave the aperture out of the peep sight for quick target acquisition. The front handguard was too thick and clunky, So I belt sanded it thinner. I also installed a curved brass butt plate as well as a brass follower and brass plated the front handguard cap. I removed the cross bolt safety and replaced it with the special made bolt. I sanded off the stock checkering and applied 4 coats of hand rubbed linseed oil. It holds 8 + 1. It is sighted in for 100 Yds. and it has a flip up receiver sight set for 300. It goes in the coffin with me.

    A venerable caliber. Hits with authority with moderate recoil. My Marlins have proven their accuracy time and again. The Springfield trapdoor carbine was chambered in this caliber nearly 150 years ago.
    Can be scoped, peep sights, buckhorn sights. A barkeep’s friend to help keep the peace in the establishment as well.
    I have a 336 in S.S. polished up to mirror finish with beautiful walnut wood fittings.
    In my 45/70 have loaded IMR 4227 but muzzle flash was excessive. IMR 3031 proved more user friendly. 350 grain hollow points showing good stopping power at 2000+ feet per second.
