He didn't like the way the curved butt touched his shoulder and couldn't see the sights well, so he decided to sell this one and he bought a Rossi Triple Black that comes with butt pad and optic mount. 357 carbine to go along with it.Ī couple weeks ago I found a stainless 16 inch R92 in. I bought a S&W 66 over the winter and have been wanting a. It was reliable, but cycled kind of clunky. Rossi doesn't use tapered octagon barrels like Marlin does, and it was a heavy beast.
The 24 inch octagon one I didn't keep long. 45 Colt, as that was what my revolvers fired. This makes the last part of the lever cycle hard to close, as the bolt has to compress that ejector spring so the bolt will close.Īnd the sight dovetails were oversize for all the sights we get from Lyman, Marbles and Williams.īoth of my Rossi's were the BrazTech by Taurus ones, and they were in. Guns came with a very heavy hammer spring, which made the lever hard to open (as the bolt has to push back the hammer) and those older BrazTech guns also had a super heavy ejector spring. Older Rossi's tended to need some work getting them up to par.Īctions and internal parts weren't the smoothest, and stocks were a plain Brazilian hardwood that came with a stain/sealer combo that didn't protect the stain very well, and the wood would look lighter where you grip them. I've had a couple Rossi R92s, their rendition of a Winchester 1892.
