Marlin 795 thread

[SDgarrick]

I made a crummy picture of my Glenfield with the hand guard & Tech Sights and also of the Marlin 60 that has a Williams peep sight.

Also, Arrow Dodger at rimfirecentral has a Powerpoint Presentation for the trigger action job on the similar Model 60.

That Marlin 60 looks awsome, I'd never heard of a 989 m2, this seems like an interesting project.

Hey, my dad brought his new 795 over and the charging handle has a little wobble to it, is this normal. I had cocked it a few times then noticed it, so im not sure if thats how it was or if I did it somehow.

[WilliamAnderson]

yea, mine has wobble perfectly normal. I've shot mine almost 2k since i got it.

yeah I just tore the whole thing apart, and it is normal, now have to put it back

[bombadillo]

My marlin (revelation) has the same wobble.

My very first rifle ever. The one that got me into it. It is still the best for all around fun and memories. I did the pimp bipod/scope thing, now I just enjoy the scope and a sling. Shotgun hull killer!

IS the 795 the same as a 60, action-wise?

[otteray]

Other than one being mag fed and the other with a tube magazine, the actions are very much alike, IMHO; as are most (if not all) the Marlin .22 autos.

Mags here for $16.95. Shipping is $5.95 for 1 $8.95 for 2. Mark

2. Has anyone tried to lighten the trigger? I find that it feels like a 2-stage trigger with a very light take-up and then an EXTREMELY heavy break. Even using a bipod, I find my sights moving as I try to squeeze the trigger through what I'm calling the 2nd stage.

No joke! That trigger is TOUGH!

Same mags but those are plated or stainless, not black. As for the trigger I have a marlin 7000 which is the heavy barrel version. A few years back I worked on the trigger. If I remember right I tweaked some springs and did some polishing and got the trigger down to about 3 and a half maybe 4lbs. The trigger definately is way better than it was. Mark

Is there a magazine loader thingie for the 795?

Got my dads rifle yesterday and installed the red dot.
So far disappointed with the brightness, at least outside
surrounded by blinding white concrete, the green setting
seemed to show through better then the red. The dot is
huge, like a q tip size, alot bigger then I was expecting,
but probably make it easier for my dad to hit the target
since he has trouble with vision. Couple of pics

So my silly question of the day:

I'm filling out the rebate form and it says to include the proof of purchase sticker from the back of the owners manual...I don't see it in the back of the owners manual or anywhere else! Any advice on where I can find this proof of purchase sticker???
