Great video.! No BS, just straight description and explanation of what you have on it, at what cost and pros and cons. Enjoyed it so much 14 mins flew by so fast. Great job.
I bought the SBL first, then bought a Guide Gun as well to trick it out but it's such a stunning rifle I can't bring myself to do it. I am however going to replace both stocks with adjustable Form stocks if and when they become available again. I love my 45-70's!
I have a henry with similar upgrades but like you i also have a Marlin Trapper and I just can't do this my Trapper , The ranger Point Precision hand guard I bought two years ago is new and still in the box
Man great looking trapper. I have the same one but my Midwest handguard I did not go with the full rail because I found mine at just over 1 bill so couldn't pass it up. Heard you talking about the trigger flop which is common in every marlin. Do yourself a favor and get the ranger point precision trigger, it takes all flop out and reduces trigger weight drastically and I can't say enough good about it. I haven't ordered yet but I'm dying to get the chisel stock, yours looks sinister the whole rifle. I have a vortex viper PST gen 2 1x6x24 and just bought a silencerco hybrid 46m and waiting for that and running a silencerco asr muzzle brake. How do you like that eotech? I love my scope but like the small footprint of the holographic optics. New subscriber here 🤙
Also try your J-mac customs handstop turned around the other way, that's how I'm running mine and that's how it is staying 🤷♂️. Our setup is really similar as I'm also running the hoptic 2rd quiver but your video is now making me order that stock 😍
Sounds like a badass setup you got there as well! I've been back and forth between my Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6 and the Eotech. I ended up putting an Eotech and a 4x Magnifier as my preferred setup. I still swap to an LPVO when needed for hunting with a thermal clip on, otherwise, the Eotech and magnifier looks and functions perfectly on here. Thanks for the sub!
Does the way the Midwest handguard attaches to the rifle feel sturdy enough to you? It screws to the barrel in one place right? And then the full-length rail attaches to the top of the action and then to the handguard toward the muzzle?
Correct and it feels extremely solid. Never had any problems regardless of all the recoil. Just be sure to use a little blue loctite on all of the screws when you first install, and you should be all good.
Precision Armament Hypertap. If you don't mind loud AF, it's phenomenal 🤣. Recoil reduction, precise fit and alignment, top notch build quality. www.opticsplanet.com/precision-armament-hypertap-muzzle-brakes-45-caliber.html
Not on the Trapper model of the 1895. The front sight doesn't fit without shaving some material off the forend. On the SBL, however, they'd work perfectly.
FYI for 2000$ you can buy a 45-70 a.r. now idk about the ammo because it's a 45-70 auto so brass is hard to get and easy to dump. But if u spend the extra in brass. Might be worth it. 😂
Agreed. My suggestion: Just pick up any 45-70 you can get your hands on, and apply new shit to it over time. Cost of all guns are just going north anyway. Might as well get the foundation at it's cheapest and work on the details later.
A lever gun can be a verry usefull self defence tool. I am from Germany and the government tries to ban autoloaders like the AR15 and i think even handguns from civilians.
I mean I'd rather have a lever gun than no gun for self defense, for sure. If I had a choice between an auto loader or a lever action, I'd take the auto loader, but I agree it can be very effective with enough practice and experience.
@@EchoDelta2A I just prefer to stay ahead of these global laws....these lever options are awesome, being on a lower budget I bought the Rossi r92 tripple black in 38/357, it's cool and cycles smooth, I will add some accessories eventually. Everyone is looking for lever guns and are hard to find these days....
So your gov readying Germans for the next globalist era of population control, digital currency, disease, dictatorial rule, social media scores, and arms bans so the next Arian 5th Reich will caught you all unprepared and disarmed ready to be hearded by their new woke socialist leaders like livestock to the slaughterhouse. Sounds familiar. Cute.
@@EchoDelta2A got the forend off now im having trouble installing the rail because the barrel sight post being in the way i tried knocking it out with a punch but its not budging😞

I just bought ordered one. Cannot wait to tacticalize mine. Thank you for the great video 👍🏼👍🏼
Congrats and enjoy!!!
Very nice. Just picked up an 1895 Marlin trapper with the Magpul furniture, so excited.
You'll love it!
I’m just getting into the Lever action guns and I’m loving them so far.
They are super fun and timeless!
Love my Stock Trapper.
Same here

Where did you get the pieces you attached to the handguard? Do they add weight or just decorative?
It's a Midwest Industries rail. Doesn't add much weight but definitely adds a lot of usable attachment space
@@EchoDelta2A awesome thanks!
I believe he's talking about the added grip pieces on the hand rail.

So badass🔥🔥
i have a ruger marlin trapper and put all rpp parts there trigger is an excelllaant upgrade
Nice Gun
What are those grips on the handguard called ?
Railscales. These are the dot matrix ones.
@@EchoDelta2A thanks mate
what muzzle break is that and how do you like it?

Did you have to remove the barrel dovetail to install the handguard
Yes, you do.
Thanks
Do the Midwest rear sights and the factory front sight work together well?
Not on the Trapper model of the 1895. The front sight doesn't fit without shaving some material off the forend. On the SBL, however, they'd work perfectly.
Can you still use the factory front sight along with the rear Midwest sight?
You can still have it mounted, but the front sight sits lower than the rear, which makes it unusable.
FYI for 2000$ you can buy a 45-70 a.r. now idk about the ammo because it's a 45-70 auto so brass is hard to get and easy to dump. But if u spend the extra in brass. Might be worth it. 😂
Or you could get a nice lever action.
@@Jay-pt3nq hay man I ant arguing what I want is a blr in 8.6black out. now that would be a nice lever gun. Know we're i could get that?
This thing looks so awesome. I’m just adding up the cost of the accessories 💸
Definitely a pricey project, but wow! What a pleasure to shoot while breaking necks at the range!
You welcome
You welcome
@@EchoDelta2A which rail covers did you use on this build?
I want one!!! But the price of these and other lever guns these days is just absurd.
Agreed. My suggestion: Just pick up any 45-70 you can get your hands on, and apply new shit to it over time. Cost of all guns are just going north anyway. Might as well get the foundation at it's cheapest and work on the details later.

Just piked up my Trapper. Nib $1400ish
Great deal! Enjoy!
im having trouble removing the forend
This is the video I used to walk me through the process: th-cam.com/video/NJ9YrijjCxI/w-d-xo.html
@@EchoDelta2A got the forend off now im having trouble installing the rail because the barrel sight post being in the way i tried knocking it out with a punch but its not budging😞
You've got to remove the front sight post and reinstall after the rail is installed. Should just be a couple screws holding it in place.
Just realized I sent you the wrong video. Sorry about that. This is the correct one: th-cam.com/video/JKqATD_3AJQ/w-d-xo.html
Can you make a video with that muzzle brake in action
it aint ranger point precision
What ain't?
I don't think you're watch is big enough
You're right... But you should see my other one 😉😆
