But wait! There's more!
As anyone that has looked at my web site ( http://www.rvbprecision.com ) knows, I'm a nut for Octagon barrels. I've converted a few Marlins from round to Octagon and this Rossi is next!
M&M Gunsmithing of Alexandria VA ( http://www.mmgunsmithing.com/
) is sending me a 24" Octagon barrel in Stainless Steel. The round barrel will be removed and replaced with an Octagon........More betta!

That's a great looking piece of work. Congratulations on a well executed conversion.
