so what's up with Rossi leverguns?

I've asked this question last year, but I am not seeing Rossi levergun's for sale anywhere? I went to their US website and all they are offering is leverguns in .45 Colt, nothing else. Was thinking about a .357 mag, but no go... :O

Last year, Rossi closed 4 old factories in Brazil with plans to open 1 new factory.
I don't know when the new one opened / or is going to open.
I guess only time will tell as to what they will produce in the new factory, both in regard to product range, and quality.

I've been looking for a Rossi stainless .357 for a couple of years.
I finally bought an Uberti '73 in .357.
I am quite pleased with the Uberti, even though it was about twice what I wanted to spend and is an oct bbl rifle instaed of a round barreled carbine.

I was really bummed out when they discontinued their 45/70 Rio Grande levergun a few years back. I wanted one in stainless.

Do a search for Rossi on Gunbroker. All kinds of .44s and .357s for sale right now.

My buddy's Henry outshoots my Rossi so badly I'd be ready for a trade. But the Rossi is a "grandkid favorite" which I always thought shot pretty fair until we started shooting the Henry. Maybe I need to make room for two .357 rifles in the stable.

I love my Rossi 92 carbine. I was a bit down to hear that they might not be making them in .44/40 anymore.

Today I went to a small gunshow a half hour from home and stumbled over a older, but perfect condition Rossi Model 92 SRC in 38/357.
I know it is an older one because of no cobbled on safety on the bolt.

Generally... it's "price".

I have one in octagon barrel .357 slicked up by nat. Will now shoot hollow points snub nose. Wad cutter s 38 and 357 all mixed up without missing a beat. Main problem was extraction till nate fixed it. How much is it worth now?
Gun only about. 6. Years old. Has rear peep sight in place of safety and mag follower replaced with metal one.

There is a pawn shop near me that has had a Rossi 44/40 on consignment for the last three years, if anyone is interested... :)

I've had four of them over the years, I expect I will end up owning that one one day too....
