1894 Trapper | 10mm | 16" | Stainless | Laminate | Lever Action Rifle

The Marlin 1894 Trapper in 10mm Auto (Part #70453) delivers compact power in a fast-handling lever-action platform. Built for rugged backcountry use, defensive applications, and hunters who prefer a hard-hitting straight-wall cartridge, this Trapper configuration combines modern performance with classic Marlin reliability.

Chambered in 10mm Auto

The 10mm Auto offers impressive versatility in a carbine-length barrel. From heavy hard-cast loads for woods protection to high-performance defensive rounds, the cartridge benefits from increased velocity out of a rifle platform, delivering:

• Enhanced terminal performance

• Flatter trajectory compared to handgun barrels

• Strong penetration for medium game and predator control

This makes the 1894 Trapper in 10mm a serious option for those who want compact power without stepping into full rifle calibers.

Compact “Trapper” Configuration

Designed for maneuverability, the Trapper model features:

• Short, handy barrel length

• Threaded muzzle for suppressor or muzzle device compatibility

• Big-loop lever for gloved operation

• Ghost ring rear sight with high-visibility front sight

The shorter profile makes it ideal for tight brush, truck carry, or backcountry protection.

Classic Marlin Construction

The 1894 Trapper maintains the rugged build quality expected from Marlin:

• Forged steel receiver

• Precision-machined internals

• Smooth cycling lever action

• Durable laminate stock for weather resistance

The laminate stock enhances durability in harsh conditions while maintaining a traditional lever-gun aesthetic.

Practical Field Performance

With its combination of compact size, fast follow-up shots, and potent 10mm chambering, the Marlin 1894 Trapper excels as:

• A woods defense rifle

• A hog and deer rifle where straight-wall cartridges are preferred

• A companion firearm for sidearm caliber commonality

• A suppressor-ready lever gun for modern shooters

For shooters seeking a durable, compact lever-action chambered in a powerful semi-auto pistol cartridge, the Marlin 1894 Trapper 10mm Auto offers modern capability wrapped in classic American design.
