John Hammond founded a company called International Genetic Technologies, or InGen for short. InGen's ambitious goal was to recreate dinosaurs through genetic engineering and establish a theme park showcasing these prehistoric creatures. After facing numerous setbacks on the islands of Isla Nublar and Isla Sorna, InGen was acquired by the Masrani Corporation, who successfully opened Jurassic World on Isla Nublar in 2005. The Park thrived for a decade until tragedy struck in 2015.

The Marlin 1895 is a classic lever-action rifle that has been in production since 1895. Originally chambered for powerful black powder cartridges like the .45-70 Government, it was one of the guns that tamed the American West. While more modern bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles eventually overshadowed lever-actions for most uses, the Marlin 1895 remained a favorite for hunters who appreciated its smooth action, reliable performance, and knockdown power on large game.

When the security team at Jurassic World needed a rifle capable of stopping the massive Tyrannosaurus Rex in an emergency, they turned to the venerable .45-70 Government cartridge. This hard-hitting round was originally a black powder cartridge developed for the US Army's"Trapdoor" Springfield rifles of the 1870s. With a heavy 500+ grain bullet and over 12,000 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, the .45-70 had more than enough power to penetrate thick dinosaur hide and bone. The lever-action allowed for faster follow-up shots than a bolt-action in close confrontations.

Early in the Isla Nublar Incident of 2015, the Marlin 1895 in .45-70 saw heavy use by Jurassic World's Asset Containment Unit. When the Indominus Rex and other dinosaurs were inadvertently released, these lever-guns were pressed into service to protect guests and recapture zones. The .45-70's deep penetration was a match for Jurassic World's most lethal inhabitants, punching through the virtually bullet-proof Indominus hide when other weapons could not. However, even multiple .45-70 hits could not stop the Beast's relentless advance. Asset Containment was forced to temporarily retreat until more powerful anti-tank weapons became available. The marlin Model 1895 had met its match.
