Thank you DIP! If you own a Marlin 795 at some point you’re going to split the trigger guard on the rear takedown screw. 795 design flaw vs the old model 60 versus and other 22s like the Savage 64 and Ruger 10/22 that have a flatter trigger guard. The 795 curves in a semi-circle behind the trigger and the rear action screw goes into polymer at the angle of the curve. Eventually everyone will likely break their polymer trigger guard. I never used a death grip on it and mine split. A 795 owner that hasn't split it is pretty lucky. Marlin 795 was half the price of the 10/22. All the money is in the 795 barrel (“micro-groove rifling”). 795 has a superior barrel and it's more accurate than the 10/22. YouTube and see side by side tests in bench press the 10/22 versus the 795. 795 shoots more accurately. With the $95 DIP upgrade you still save $50+ and have a more accurate rifle than the 10/22. Ruger bought Marlin a year ago and no longer services Marlin. Ruger has NO Marlin parts. So for us Marlin owners we are S.O.L. Ruger wants everyone to buy a 10/22 (which is a fine rifle, aftermarket parts etc). If it weren't for DIP we'd all be screwed and have to throw the rifle away or do something dumb and epoxy the polymer together which is not recommended on a firearm. If it wasn’t for DIP the rifle would be useless (or overpay for someone's old polymer trigger guard on eBay and you don't know what you're getting). I made errors installing it (I messed up the travel screws - all my fault) and Bob (DIP’s Gunsmith) is an amazing help. Buy the 795 Complete Trigger Guard and drop it in. Don’t bother getting only the frame and reusing the old trigger to save a couple of bucks. The new trigger is better. Trigger Guard Complete works like a charm and it’s a huge upgrade - it's aircraft aluminum and it's not going to crack or bend like the polymer. This is a great purchase. If it weren’t for DIP Products you’d end up throwing the rifle away. I couldn't be happier. I shot 270 rounds and not 1 issue, no jams, or malfunctions. Just make sure NOT to extend the trigger travel screw too much (just a teeny amount , barely 1 thread or so). Thank you Bob at DIP! DIP made a good rifle great!
