Hello,

I have seen this in two fliers now from RSR Group but they indicate it is "coming soon". I am very curious about the quality and reliability of this gun. Has anyone tested/shot/handled this model and have any input to offer?

Thanks!!!
Darin

Yes, me too! I see some good potential. Hopefully, I am not too optomistic.

Gents,

As has been said in other discussions about this rifle, it may be heavily reworked to acommodate the .22LR round. The few photographs that I have seen appear to show the left side of a regular, centerfire Rossi 92.

I have thought about it, and I am curious to see if Taurus, which now controls the Rossi plant & machinery, will restamp & rebrand their levered version of the Rossi/ Taurus Model 62 pump rifle as a "Rossi Model 92 Rimfire levergun"

Shawn,

I'm finding myself agreeing with you. The previous thread on this from a couple weeks ago left a lot of unanswered questions.

I wish I'd seen one of those Model 62 lever guns. I like the looks of that one and would be very tempted to buy it.

I think I will stick to my old Marlin 39, I have seen some of the Norinco 22 levers and did not like them they are supposed to be a Browning copy but are very very rough.
Hope Rossi makes them smooth but it is a wait and see thing.

the taurus LAR are actually pretty nice, heres mine after a little modification

lengthened the magazine tube, removed the safetyand tigg welded the hole shut , sanded out the awful checkering, and added the sights

Hi Shawn,
That certainly makes more sense. The pump gun converted to a lever isn't new. So why re-invent the wheel.
