May I ask why you would want another trigger guard for the Marlin 795 ?
Remember there are no stupid questions  ;D

I used to ask the same question until I noticed some cracks around the rear screw hole on the guard.  I may be in the market for one of these.

$50 for a trigger guard seems a bit steep when I only paid $99 for the rifle (after rebate). However I too think I will be needing one in the near future - cracked front screw hole. The DIP trigger guards are well regarded on rimfirecentral. Lots of other mods at http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=217

BTW, I did the trigger job when I filed the sear and it really made my 795s shoot beautifully. A couple of fellow Appleseeders thought the trigger ended up feeling better than some of the nice custom Ruger triggers. I weighed the trigger pull at 2.5 pounds. I think with the addition of the replacement trigger guard and replacement trigger that it truly would be a very fine shooting machine.

i think the replacement trigger guard and new trigger are all cnc aluminium and the replacement has more room between it and the mag release making it quicker to remove them and not only that it makes the rifle look better in my opinion. where do you find out how to do the trigger job on the marlin 795

From what I know about rimfire central (I'm cb there), DIP made the guards for RimfireTech but now sells them for themselves.  I bought one of my 795 from a pawn shop and the guard already showed cracks around the rear screw.  I sent it back to Marlin and they replaced it free.

The aluminum guard is pricey but worth it; that along with a little TLC on the trigger works makes for a nice operating machine.
