Hello, I finally found a Rossi PUMA (without the stupid "safety") in 38/357 with a 16 inch barrel. It is being sent out from Texas today so should be here some time this week.
I have safes full of guns but always wanted one of these. I checked all the local gun shows for the past few years and found nothing. So, finally had to give in and check out gunbroker............it cost more than I wanted but these days everything does!!
I am currently living on a few acres East of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Retired United States Air Force Master Sergeant. Then retired Air Force contractor. Now, just retired.
I think the Puma will be just the right size for use as a back door gun. Lots of critters int the trees and down by the pond so we shall see.
I'll put up pictures and probably ask questions when it arrives.

Re: New Member from IOWA
Just did the tracking on my new rifle!!!
I find it hard to believe the package sat in Oklahoma City for TWENTY-TWO AND ONE HALF HOURS before being put on the next truck to Kansas City!!! It must have just missed yesterday's truck!!!
Oh, well...........patience!!! It will arrive soon; hopefully before the weekend.

Re: New Member from IOWA
Thank you for the welcome.
It looks like a great place you have established here.
I just checked tracking again and found that my PUMA arrived is Des Moines this afternoon so - if I'm lucky it will make it to Cedar Rapids UPS place sometime tonight and to my FFL sometime tomorrow.
I have wanted one of these for a long time but refused to get the "new and improved" version with the "safety".
We shall see!!!
