Hello all,
I am seeking information preferably first hand information on a marlin 1895 trapper in 45/70. Rifle has a 16" barrel. I may eventually put a red dot of low power scope on it. This is going to be a back up carry guy in the woods. My children are becoming hunting ages and are interested. I want to have a back up rifle that I can carry while moving through the woods, in the truck, and tracking game. I will run a suppressor on it most of the time is why I want the shorter barrel.
Does anyone have any experience with these rifles. I'm looking for the goods and bads. Thank you in advance.
Daniel
