Re: WW Greener , not a REAL lever gun?
Thought you guys would like to see my old WW Greener 12ga. 32" barrel shotgun. Navy Arms imported and rebuilt them back in the days when you could just send them a check and the mail man would drop it off at the front door. Paid $59.00 IIRC Remove one screw and the barrel unscrews. A take down...

The .357 seems to bring more dough than the .44 mag. Less recoil plus cheaper factory ammo I assume. The nicer ones seem to be in the $800-$900.00 range. Good luck in your search. 1886. Mainly because there were far fewer 357's made compared to the 44 mags. I do believe the B-92 is the best 92 ever...

Re: Kiowa Jones M92 and Tang Sight Question

The early one's not only split the stock in the tang area but the recoil also jumped the mag rubes out. Rossi fixed the mag tube problem by screwing them into the frame. They did add a nylon or plastic bushing through the tang screw hole but it hasn't helped all that much best I can tell. The proble...
