It's a Rossi. Just like the Puma. :wink: I think the EMF is a little better. Up until about the mid 90's InterArms was the only importer of the Rossi 92 rifles but they are no longer in business. Currently, there are three importers of the Rossi 92 guns. EMF's Hartford, LSI's Puma, and (really limi...

Repro 1887 LeverShotgun
I'm confused. I thought InterArms and Norinco were two different companies. I have read InterAms is a better product. I found one listed as: " IAC|Norinco M1887". Is not IAC, InterArms?

I have two Rossi 92's, 357 and 45C. 1886 Miroku 45/70 and Marlin 94. All are great shooters. The greatest is actually the Rossi 357. The fit and finish is not as fine on the Rossi's as the 1886 but not by much. The Rossi's are as fine as the Marlin in fit and finish. Maybe I was just lucky on the on...

Why no leverguns...? For most of us the answer may be in the nearest mirror.

If it is just a hobby to you, f...

Need help on a Win 76
Came across two 76’s today. The one I might be interested in is a 45-60 made in 1882. Good bore, bright and shiny with what appears to be slight pitting. Finish on all exterior metal is original with a good consistent patina. Wood is well used with many scares and bruises but no cracks. It also ap...

Is there any real difference between the modern Browning and Winchester 1886's? Are they not the same rifle made to the same specs in Muroko, Japan or however it is spelled? Also is there a difference in compared value?

Laid my levergun down today and took my Sig 229 .40 S&W semi auto to the range. I haven't shot this gun in a couple of years and at 25 yrds. off hand could only hit a ten inch plate about 50% of the time. How bad is this. Let me hear from all you pistol shooters out there.
