RIFLE SERVICES
Master Marlin Upgrade Package:

We have taken the 1895 Marlin and turned it into a tack driving rifle.  Accuracy tests have shown consistant MOA or less groups at 100 yards. Our proprietary rebarreling technique results in no stress imparted to barrel by magazine tube. We use only Pac-Nor match grade barrels.  They have a smooth, hand lapped interior that will not lead like factory barrels. We carefully thread, chamber, and crown these in our shop. Chamber throats are slightly freebored for chambering cast bullets. Mag tube is lengthened to be flush with muzzle. This equates to 6 rds. @ 18.5". Action is polished and trigger creep removed. Trigger pull set at 3-3.5#. A 1" Limbsaver or 1" Decelerator recoil pad is fitted to the stock. A choice of sights round out the package. Stock is glassbedded to receiver.  Gun is refinished in a matte blue or beadblasted stainless. Every part of the gun is detail inspected for looks, fit, and function and corrective action taken as needed. This makes a great  hunting rifle for most big game, especially with some of the new ammo available at the present time. This is our premier Marlin package and designed to be the best possible lever gun.

Alter customer supplied suppressor adapter to fit barrel threads- $25 minimum, no titanium adapters
In order to maintain a sufficient wall thickness in the barrel under the thread and maintain a shoulder to seat the suppressor against, no deviation from the above barrel length will be considered. Finer pitch threads will be considered as long as the outside diameter of the threads is no smaller than shown above. To my knowledge, no industry standards exist for this, so I will try to work with you to come up with a solution that will work.
At this time, I can supply thread protectors on a limited basis.
Barrel is removed for this service. Please remove any scopes or dot sights before sending gun in. Stock can also be removed for easier shipping. Call with any questions.

Threading barrel for a suppressor is 1/2 price when done in conjunction with the Master or Basic package above.
