Title: Aftermarket stock for a Marlin 795
Post by: CedarBill on April 12, 2012, 11:51:10 AM
I'm thinking about buying a 22 for my oldest sons and am debating between a Ruger 10/22 and a Marlin 795. I would prefer a Marlin 795 but I would like to put an adjustable stock on it to make it easier for them to use. I can't seem to find any on the web. Does anyone here have any ideas?

There is limited aftermarket upgrades for the 795 due to the way it is designed and manufactured.  The receiver/frame is actually part of the stock so replacing the stock means you technically end up with a new gun, at least by ATF rules.

That is not true at all , I own 2 795's and the receiver is serialed just like any other rifle, and the stock is removeable from the action

My 795 the serial is a little metel tag in the plastic of the stock, I wonder if there is, or at some time has had a change?

See the serial number in this image...All the 795's I have ever looked at had the serial number engraved in the receiver in this location on the left side towards the front.

Now you got me wondering if I'm thinking of a differnt gun, I have it and two or three oher 22's up at the farm and the nieces and nephews get to use them.  I guess one of these days I need to go visit my rifle again and check this out.

I know this thread is a little old but it comes up early in Google when looking for a replacement stock. So I wanted to share that there is a new option out there for the 60 & 795.

NO!  that is not a Marlin, That is the Mossberg 464 SPX lever gun they attempt to make Tacticool.

I even hate to think of Mossberg going down that path.  Now Taurus? I could see them do it.  LOL
That being said, I kinda want one... just for the WTF? response.
