Built around a stainless steel barrel and stainless receiver with a matte/satin, silver-toned finish, this 1895TSBL keeps a consistent stainless look across the major metal components. The side-eject, solid-top receiver layout includes a visible right-side ejection port.
This rifle is configured with iron sights: a fixed blade/post front sight on a ramped base and a Skinner "TRAPPER" aperture/peep-style rear sight mounted at the receiver/top base. The cross-bolt safety is present, and the lever-action system uses a large-loop lever.
