The RPP Flyweight Loading Gate greatly reduces the effort required to stoke your Marlin. It&#039;s a masterfully tuned, competition grade part right out of the gate. SASS approved. <br> <br>Starting with a massive reduction in spring weight, the RPP gate requires only about 1.5 lbs. of force to open fully, while the factory loading gate can require in excess of 5 lbs. <br> <br>Next, we redesigned the lever-action loading gate to offer substantially more clearance for cartridges, further reducing load effort. This is a significant benefit when loading fat, straight wall ammo like the Marlin 444. In fact, during testing we discovered that we could load a .444 dummy through the gate of a typical Marlin 336 .30-30, without benefit of the Model 444&#039;s magazine tube clearance bulge. That&#039;s first class leg room! <br> <br>Finally, we paid very careful attention to the inside &quot;feed lip&quot; area of the gate, optimizing geometry to ease gate opening against an on-deck round, and offer smooth feeding, with perfect case head control. With every gate precisely CNC machined from solid bar stock and hand polished, consistent results are assured. <br> <br>Material is 7075-T6 aluminum, the strongest grade available. Engineered for highly stressed air frames, 7075 has extraordinary fatigue strength for thousands of flex cycles without failure. When anodized, it has a surface hardness exceeding hardened steel, for excellent wear properties.

Ranger Point Precision 13.25&quot; long Marlin MLOK Aluminum Forearm Handguard for all 1895 45-70 Govt; 450M; 444 (non-barrel band options); 336 30-30 Win or 35 Rem (also Glenfield&#039;s), 38-55, 41 Mag, 44 Mag, 357 Mag, 45 Colt. <br> <br>Robust build quality.Sniper Green or Sniper Grey Cerakote or Black Type III anodized aluminum coating. The RPP handguard is supplied with purpose-built mounting hardware that is significantly stronger than Marlin factory hardware. Our burly tenon is made of 17-4ph stainless, the strongest grade available. Our barrel band adapter clamps around the barrel, rather than simply using a floating pin. While we have confidence in the strength of our system, there is a practical limit to how much weight/recoil your barrel dovetail can support, so we discourage the use of heavy accessories and bipods.
