I joined this forum because on Friday I will pick up my new .357 mag Rossi M92 with 24" octagonal barrel and blue finish. I have been gleaning info from this site about what kind of work this rifle might need to be dependable. I am 67 years old and have been retired for a few years now. As I was signing up for this website, I realized I had other firearms that would fit. Within the last year I purchased a Gaucho in .357 mag. I also have a Taurus Model 66 .357 mag in brushed nickel that I purchased in the late '80's. Finally I have a Rossi .38 Spl with a 3" barrel. This was my mother-in-law's carry gun before she passed away. Buying the Gaucho got me thinking about all those westerns on TV and at the movies that I watched as a kid. Over the past decades I developed a love for all things military--Springfield '03's, M1 rifles and carbines, HK 91 civilian version of the German G3 rifle, AR-15's, Beretta 92, Model 1911 pistols, and a couple of semi-auto Uzi's. But that Gaucho and my Winchester Model 1897 shotgun got me thinking about the intro to the old "Lone Ranger" series. The announcer would say: "Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear!" I guess I needed a M92 lever gun to get there. I'll eventually post pics of these firearms and post about any mods I make to the rifle.

I just posted over on his thread about some leads that I had. But no, my dealer has only 16" barreled M92's remaining.
