This week, we're taking a look at the Marlin Model 1895CB. A big-bore lever-action chambered in classic .45-70 Government, the 1895CB not only packs a punch, but holds nine whole rounds of it in its tubular magazine. This combines with its 26-inch tapered octagonal barrel for superb accuracy, even at range. For more information on this old-West long gun, check out the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Associate Editor David Herman. MSRP: $972.39; marlin firearms.com.
