I have a 1895g. That thing is a canon, especially with the Underwood +p rounds. .45-70 is a fantastic rifle. Good luck to anything down range.

I might have my Saint Victor 300BO Pistol sold so I might just get that Marlin Guide Gun in 45-70 I’m still kicking myself for not getting one when I worked for Marlin years ago.

They're great rifles. It's been a chore to find another one right now. I hope you get one!

I just checked online, found a couple for $700.00 although I won’t buy online. I’ll keep my eyes open. I’m in no rush.
