Marlin 795 thread

[afro]

Been shooting Minimags. Every now and then one will hit my wrist. Doesn't hurt or anything.

Any lefties have problems with ejected casings hitting your wrist?

Nope! What ammo are you shooting? I mostly use CCI Mini/Blazer. Don't have any problems.

+1 on Walmart. I found a nice Remington rifle bag for $10. Before that, I just kept it in rifle sleeve treated with silicone which worked fine too.

Walmart has tons to pick from for $10 and $20... Atleast mine does..

i'm in my 10-day wait period for my 795. can anyone recommend a decent affordable bag/case for my rifle?

I just went to turners and found one for $5. You should check big5 as well

^^ yea its wearing off the black but the weird thing is its only on one side only the other side has the full black coating. everytime i oil and clean mine it starts to jamm, i love to lube things too much

[caoboy]

Is it wearing off the black finish on the inside of the receiver? Mine is flaking off it seems. I figure keeping it oiled and clean should be fine.

i notice that the bolt is wearing only one side of the receiver, you can only see this when the bolt is removed anybody else have this issue? or is it only me? i have a couple thousand rounds through it

I think this is gonna be an impulse buy for me. Do you know when this sale ends? Besides I don't have a 22lr in my collection.

The ad in our paper here in OR says the deal is good through the 20th of Feb. Hope you are able to get one!

They're under $95 at Sports Authority this weekend - after $25 mail in rebate. Only problem for me is a 140 mile round trip.

So I finally cleaned and oiled my Marlin 795 that I bought back on black friday lol. Yea I've been busy.

So looking at the stock sights, looks like Im not really going to want to bother with them straight from the get go.

Id prefer the scope be able to hold zero, crosshairs stay perpendicular and good clarity. It's mostly for plinking at the range 25-100yds max. Pretty much looking to be under $50

Any of you guys use these? Pretty much what Im looking at right now.

Anybody?

[shooterdude]

That will pretty much do it. Every once in a while, it wouldn't hurt to strip it down and do a good cleaning, but .22s seem to be able to get a bit dirty and keep going. Oh, I also use a bore snake on mine and the barrel is nice and shiney! I know some people like the rod, but mine does not seem to mind just getting the snake!

Best of luck!

+1 for the bore snake.
