I have both. My Marlins are much more accurate than my Rossies. But the Rossi 92 is one darned fun gun. Both of mine in .44 wil shoot Mags and Spls flawlessly. That wasn't true for the 357s. The Marlin I had wouldn't feed 38s and my Rossi wouldn't feed 357s. A trip to the gunsmith ( Stevesgunz.com) ...

Gary (1886) is one of the good guys. Glad the 64 Got a good home. I was really tempted by that one too.

2ndovc

Those Turkeys suck!!!!!!!!

I think I missed 7 in a row!

I'll do better next time!

2ndovc

Just an observation. At the Penn. State Sil. match. 90% of the small bore (.22) rifles were Marlins. Not to say the Win( of which I'm a big fan) were inferior in any way but, the Guys that were shooting Marlins got the awards.

I've taken a LOT of white tail w/ my 95/30-06. Love to pickup one of the new ones just for S & giggles. Bought it while was in college for a whopping $300. Can still hear the EX yelling at me :D http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q128/2ndovc/100_0784.jpg Have fun!!!!! Lets have some PICS!!!!!!!!

That would be some really cool diving!!

Couple more thoughts... I was expecting to see a lot of guys showing off thier vintage Winchesters. Saw a couple but most of the Guys were shooting Marlins. Mainly Cowboy models and a lot of 357s. The Small bore rifle shoot was almost all Marlins with a couple 9422s one or two Henrys and one Win Mod...

Nice Shootn'!

It was a bit on the chilly side. I doubt it broke 60 on Sat. Beautiful day though.

Had a great time at the Penn. State Silhouete Match. My first time shooting a sil. match. Diidn't do great but at least I wasn't DFL! Met up w/ John K. aka w30wcf. Super nice guy! The McKean County Rifle club where the match is held. Only 20 min. from my cabin but I'd never been there. http://i135.p...

Been there, done that a couple times. Both times while building houses. Last time I sold off some really good stuff because of the higher $ value. Really wish I hadn't. I have several guns that have been passed down to me. In a moment of sheer stupidity I sold a Win. 92 SRC button mag in 25-20 for a...

Works really well for my 257 Roberts loads.

I've used a small brass brush, sort of like a tooth brush to remove a little light rust on mil. surplus rifles. Worked well and didn't seem to hurt the finish any. haven't tried it on anything else though.

We rounded up a male weimaraner today. He's at the pound now. I told them if no one claims him that we want him back so we can find him a home. I'd keep him but we already have three big dogs and am dog sitting for a friend for a month or so. Just can't handle five. If anyone has any interest shoot ...

Tasty!

2ndovc

Man, I want one of those!!!!!!!!

I had to have my older Interarms Rossi 92 worked over by Steve Young ( Stevezgunz) to get it t feed and fire 357s. Now it's one of my favorite rifles! Feeds my 125 gr hornady XTPs fawlessly!

2ndovc

Some of my favorite memories are "Bunny Bustin' " with my Dad and my cousin. My cousin had a big farm less than 30 mn from where we lived and was allways happy when we came down. We would get out early in the am W/ frost on the ground and spend all day beating the brush. My cousin had a Br...

2ndovc

Wow! To think I've only passed up on 70 or 80 of those! Had no idea how rare they were!

2ndovc

They're addictive little buggers

2ndovc

I also have a Rossi 92 that has been worked over by Steve Young. Couldn't be happier w/it. It's one of the older Interarms imports that I found new in the box for $250 at a local show. Slicker than snot and a great shooter! I'm a big fan of the Marlins too. I don't have a 357 but my .44, .45, 450M a...

2ndovc

I was going to wait until the other stocks get here but I might have to put it together any way just to see how it shoots.

2ndovc

My Dad has one of those since he was 16. The most accurate revolver I've ever fired!

2ndovc

I have all the small parts. They were all wraped up in tape. Didn't want to unwrap it all.

She'll have a good home

ove 92s and the 32-20!

2ndovc

I haven't had just one of anything since I was 16. I've got too much stuff too. Was digging through my closet a couple weeks ago and found a rifle I couldn't remember where or when I got it. Been thinning things out for a while now and still have some work to do.

2ndovc

Me and this "Old Dog" have taken a lot of white tail. bought it when I was still in college. Has a Redfield D&Td into the receiver.

95's will always be my favorite Browning design.

2ndovc

Salvo,

The new sights are a Marbles rear short semi-buckhorn and Steve's new front sight/barrel band w/ brass bead. worth every cent of the 89.95!

Thinking this is going to become one of my favorite rifles

Saving my pennies so I can send him my .44

2ndovc

Traded an Enfield No4 that I had $55 in and 100 bucks for this model 92/ 32-20. Already have three 32-20s but I couldn't pass it up. Rifle is all there with a second set of stocks on their way. Fore end and but stock are both cracked but serviceable. Can't wait to put it back togeter. http://i135.ph...

2ndovc

Rossi arrived Wed afternoon and finally got to the range today. Sooo worth the wait! He did an action job and installed new front and rear sights. All I can say is "WOW"!! It was always a good shooter w/ 38s but wouldn't feed or even load more than three 357s. Now it feeds my Horn 125 XTPs...

The Zippo/ Case Vistor center is really is worth the time. I have a cabin outside Bradford, PA and every time we go the boys bug me about stopping.

I bought Gary W ( 1886) custom 92 Rossi. Super nice guy and rifle was EXACTLY as described! He even let me make a couple payments on it. First impression was that it was "Slicker than Snot" :D Ran home and grabbed some ammo that I had made in anticipation of it's arrival. 27 grs. /W 296 &a...

My Grandfather had one for a long time. I believe it was a 35rem. I always thought it was an interesting old gun. I passed up a mint one at a show several years ago with a Lyman Alaskan scope in a side mount. Didn't have quite enough $$ that day. Still wish I could have brought that one home.

2ndovc

Really sharp looking rifle!!

2ndovc

Don't forget Colt. To me they're worth the extra $$. I won't be parting with mine anytime soon.

Only other brand I have experience with is Bushmaster. Also an excellent choice.

2ndovc

Joe,

Deposit Check is on it's way,

Been skunked two years in a row at my camp in NW Penn.

Gotta shoot something!

2ndovc

I had a 94 in 32-40 several years ago. Sold it when the prices really jumped up and was building my last house. Wish I hadn't, was a super accurate rifle. Very mild recoil.

Don't even want to think what a nice take down is worth

2ndovc

Thanks Joe, I knew somebody would know. Never thought of checking the Marlin site. Haven't had many newer firearms until recently. Didn't even think of checking with the factory. Duh! Called Marlin and parts are on the way. That little stud was $12 Bought 2 sets, my 94P/44 mag seems to be stripping ...

2ndovc

Need to order a new mag tube plug screw for my 94S. What's the proper name for the piece dovetailed into the barrel that the scew threads into? That particular piece isn't on any of the exploded views I can find.

thanks

G,G,Granfather was in the Second Ohio Vol. Cav. It was that or 3rdIVC that my other G,G,Grandfather was the Third Indiana Vol. Cav. They were all farmers and horsemen back then.

Wanted to see it Friday night but the Boss Lady wanted to see something else so we compromised on another movie. "Death Sentence" w/ Kevin Bacon. Pretty good but a brutal move.

Might have to sneak off to the movies one afternoon this week

My wife and I were in Paris in April of this year.

I have a Leupold Scout scope w/ a XS mount on my 450 Marlin and love it. Just enough magnification to help count points on antlers. Also have the same scope on my SOCOM 16.
