I was forced at gunpoint by my pusher, today, to accept this new Rossi M92 .38/.357 8+1 16" Carbine ( I call it a Trapper) - and I guess now I'm gonna HAVE TO get some ammo to fed the durn thing !
I dunno, 'bout thet bigfoot, tho - I might havta swap it out fer a standard loop.
Shoot it for bit before you get rid of the big loop lever. You may find you like it.

Ya know, I like that! Never had me one of those short guns. I bet that baby would ride real nice next to me in the Jeep.-----------Can I have it?-----------------------Sixgun

But of course, I stand ready to help a friend. Ship it to me and I'll break it in for you!
Don't thank me, I'm just generous that way....

Sniff, this is what just makes my heart go pitter-patter. The outpouring of self-sacrifice people make on this forum. Excuse me - I need to go get a tissue!
That is a neat orphan. I love my large loop on my .357. some like em, some don't. I'm sure I could find a place next to its brother from another mother should it be troublesome to feed.

I heard offline from a vintage fellow levergunner, who's generously offered to swop finger levers with me (Thank's, pardner !), so when my vig arrives near the end of the month, and I can finance some ammo to give 'er a try - I'll have some deep considerin' ta do.
I've owned (maybe) 50 leverguns before this one, over the years - but never a big loop.
I can't say I'm deeply in love with the "look", but experience has taught me that the proof's in the puddin', if nothing else - so IMHO it deserves a fair lick, before I swap it out.
Just great. I have a passel of Rossi's, a number of Marlins and a few Winchester levers. Figured I could be satisfied with what I have. Then I decided I needed a Ruger 44 special, which I was lucky to find and thought I had found contentment. Now I feel a craving for a little trapper, but I would like to get an octagon barrel, possibly stainless steel. Of course it would have to be a .357/38 special. You people are terrible, like waving booze around and alcoholic. Does it never end???? Looks rather nifty for little rifle. Need one for one of my new scabbards. ATB
