Several Rossi '92 ?s

Post by pneuby »

Slings: Is there a single-point option out there? If not, what did you use? I'm not opposed to the thought of one of the ballistic nylon quivers out there, either. Anyone use those?

Stock: I've read here that the Ramline takes a lot of effort to fit. Are there replacement wood units available at a reasonable price? I love the 12.5" LOP at the center of the butt, but...I'd like a flat plate, or a hard rubber pad for more grip on my clothing.

Sight: I'm debating the safety replacement from NKJ, vs one of the peeps that replaces the stock rear sight. However, I'm one of the weirdos that's none too bothered over the safety, and I would actually use it if I had to empty the mag for whatever reason. Over 40 eyes, and near-sighted, I tend to look OVER my lenses when shooting my handguns.

Thanks, all. :)

Single Point Sling option... It's called a Saddle Ring and... wait for it... a Single Point Sling. :wink:

I don't think replacement wood is too expensive.

Go with a Williams FP or something similar if you are intent on keeping the "safety".

I shoot LH, so it just didn't seem workable to me. However, can a saddle ring be installed from the RH side of the gun?

They do make a single-point sling attachment that attaches to any standard scope rail, if you wanted to put a short (1" would do) section somewhere on the gun, i.e. by replacing a tang or action screw with a longer one or something.

Sure, but it would need to be one of the later stud type saddlerings. For two reasons, the staple type that was used on the original 92 is hard to come by and second the stud type only requires one D&T-ed hole. The 92 receiver can be D&T-ed on the right side directly across from where it would be on the left side.

Thanks, Nate. I'd rather not alter the receiver, especially if there's other means. perhaps I will try to find a spare stock ane experiment.
