A compact stainless Marlin 1894 Trapper chambered for .357 Magnum

This Marlin 1894 Trapper combines a 16.1-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel, matte stainless construction and black laminate stock. The barrel is threaded 1/2×28, and the rifle uses an oversized loop lever with a Skinner Bear Buster front sight and receiver-mounted Skinner Trapper rear sight.

The compact barrel, corrosion-resistant materials and eight-round .357 Magnum magazine capacity position it as a field, ranch and thick-cover lever rifle. Those features describe the configuration; they do not guarantee accuracy, durability or suitability for a particular user or environment.
