Another Texan

Post by Steelburner »

Hello, fellow Rossians!

I'm a recent convert to pistol-caliber long guns and have two Rossii, both 92s.

My carbine is in .44 Magnum/Special, 20" round barrel. I bought it brand-new in the box.

My rifle is in .45 Colt, 24" Octagonal barrel.

On the carbine I've lightened the springs on the loading gate door and the ejector, but nothing else as it's extremely smooth-acting.

I've done nothing yet to the rifle, which I bought used. I think I'll lighten the loading gate and ejector springs, and I wish I could lighten the rifle, too! The action is older and is not as smooth as the carbine's, but I don't think I'll tinker with it much.

Looking forward to learning more about my long guns.

Welcome, if you start shooting full house hunting loads in the Colt you'll come to appreciate the weight :D
