MARLIN 1895 SBL Grizzley

Design and Build Quality

The MARLIN 1895 SBL Grizzley is an American-made lever-action from Marlin’s Wildlife Series that emphasizes durable materials and fit-and-finish. It features a polished stainless steel finish over a threaded 19″ cold hammer-forged barrel for long-term corrosion resistance and consistent accuracy. The gray laminate forend and stock include sharp checkering to improve purchase under wet or cold conditions, and the oversized polished stainless steel lever loop balances fast cycling with positive hand placement.

Modern Sight and Accessory Options

Sights

For practical field engagement the rifle integrates a fiber optic front sight surrounding a tritium ring for low-light acquisition, paired with an adjustable ghost ring rear sight for fast, precise alignment. These features make the rifle effective at varying ranges and lighting without sacrificing classic handling.

Mounting and Safety

A Picatinny rail on the receiver provides a stable platform for contemporary optics and scope rings, enabling shooters to outfit the rifle for long-range or quick-target work. The action retains traditional elements—a half-cock hammer with an offset hammer spur for safer thumb positioning—while a push-button cross-bolt manual safety provides positive, tactile engagement.

The MARLIN 1895 SBL Grizzley is offered at a retail price of $2,499.99, reflecting the premium materials, cold hammer-forged barrel, and upgraded sight package.

Handling and Applications

With its threaded 19″ barrel and robust lever geometry, this rifle is well-suited for medium- to large-game hunting scenarios where quick follow-up shots and reliable cycling matter. The laminate stock resists environmental changes, and the enlarged lever aids gloved operation in cold climates. Marlin’s reputation and the model’s construction make it a strong option for shooters who want a lever action updated with modern sighting and mounting options.
