Marlin 795 thread

[Raptor3000]

Just ordered tech sights (TSM200) for my 795.

Just came from Daly City Big 5 and the manager said she would give me the 795 for the previous sale price of $139.99 (after $25 rebate). Nice staff... Now the long wait begins!

If anybody is interested there's a set of Tech Sight's on ebay, 3 day's left on the auction.

Hey, how much are 795s going for at Big5 nowadays?

Last time I was in my local one they were advertised as $139 AFTER the $25 rebate. So, like $165?

Dam you!!!!! I've had mine for almost a month now and have shot 0 rounds thru it.

I really need to get out to the range....

I built a .223 AR-15 3 months ago, it's still unfired

Hi Guys,

Bought a 795 two weeks back and already shot 1300 rounds through it :-). Used Federal cheap 550 with no FTF or FTE.

I have already asked you guys about tech sights upgrade and was little hesitant to spend $75 for this upgrade. Now since i am enjoying shooting this rifle, want to take it to the next level. Stock sights are alright, but if the tech sights make a day and night difference in accuracy, willing to shell out $75.

Please post your experiences with tech sights and also please let me know if the difference between tech sights and stock sights is phenomenal.

Thanks in advance.

What's the difference between S&W M&P 15-22 and Marlin 795? I know 15-22 is a AR-15 style rifle and 795 is just a vanilla rifle. I mean accuracy, range etc.

Is it worth spending $500 more for M&P 15-22?

thanks

Would you rather have "4" of em 795.... or '1' of em 15-22.... you pick. LoL...

Sorry to double post but I got in my DIP Inc drop-in trigger tonight.



I wasn't planning on doing any upgrades like this but the serated face of the stock trigger was really killing my finger after a couple hours at the range. So I bought the drop-in trigger.

It came in the mail today and I decided to drop it in tonight. Install was easy and I was able to adjust most of the pre-travel. Above that it feels way better,

I took my 795 to the range again this weekend and did a lot of ammo testing. Tried 36 gr CCI Mini Mag HP, Federal bulk 36 gr HP, and some Winchester Super X high velocity.

Put maybe 300-400 rounds through it and the only ammo that gave me any trouble was the Winchester and that was only one FTF and one FTE. I doubt I'll bother with the Super X again since it's just as expensive as the CCI. The Federal shot great which is great to find as I now have a good cheap ammo supply. No surprise that the CCI was great.

I was shooting some small 4" targets at 25 yards so my groupings aren't worth showing off at all. Just having fun. I'm getting a bipod and a scope this week. This weekend I'll probably stick with the Tec Sights again to get better at iron sighting but put on the bipod. After that I'll put on the scope.

Having a blast.

tech sight website is selling them for $69 + $6 shipping.

My Marlin 795 stock rear sight slides to a side after shooting, every mag i have to push it back in its position, is it normal? I want to send it back to Marlin and get it checked.

thanks

Is there any other site that sells tech sights or have to get them from tech sights directly.


Thanks

The only place would be ebay. I found one techsight for 795 two weeks ago. It was sold for around 60.

Tech Sights are made by them. I don't know that I would call them cheap but AFAIK that is the cheapest you are going to find them for.
