Special thanks to Mr Steve Young,

Post by 357dude »

Thank you for the time you spent with me on the phone and for your advice on how to fix my Rossi 92.

Last night I had given up on it and listed it for sale here on the classifieds as a 38 sp. only that won't feed 357 mag. This morning I decided I to keep cutting the cartridge guides even if I had to buy new guides to get it to work again. Well, it worked. I was suprised and happy to finally get it to feed 357's and it still handles the 38's perfectly.

Without Steve Young's coaching I probably would have given up too soon and sold it at a loss and then spent more money replacing it with another one.

I really want a stainless 16" and when I save up the money I will most definitely be buying it form Steve's Gunz. It's not worth the risk of getting a lemon from your local FFL and having to go thru what I just did.

Steve, thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it.

I spoke to Steve just yesterday, about buying one of his CD's and some other '92 related things. He's an upfront kind of guy that I can't say enough good things about. He says he absolutely loves what he does for a living, and will always help where he can.

Gents,

Mr. Young has spent some time on the phone with me, too. He is a man of many tallents, and a pleasure to do business with. I have not bought anything of great monetary value from him, but he has given me his time, and some good advice. One piece of advice that I will share with you all is a solution to a missing friction stud on one of my levers: Steve suggested that I use some drillbit stock of the correct diameter to make a replacement stud. ...so simple, huh? Just a hacksaw & a file, or a Dremel Moto-tool, plus a vise or pliers, properly applied to the drill rod, and you got yourself a new friction stud!

Steve's video is good, too. I like the clamp-on table vise that he uses to hold the rifles that he works on. I have been on the lookout for one of those vises.

Thank you, Mr. Young!

Shawn

I had lots of problems with a Rossi in .454 Casull that wouldn't feed .45 Colt. Steve worked and worked on it and even he couldn't get it running. We finally did a deal for one of his tuned .45 Colt only rifles at a very good price. He didn't charge me anything for the work he had already done! A gentleman and very responsive. It's now my California-proofed (for now) urban rifle. I would recommend him highly.

This is my first post here, at least for a long, long time. I am a refugee from the Sixgunner Forum and am pleased to see old forum friends here.

Hey guys,
I really appreciate all the flowers but You gotta know, I really like what I do and more important, I know it aint brain surgery so it anit no big secret that I can't share.
I trurely love what I do and really enjoy talking about it as well. you have to really love it because you aren't going to get rich doing it. In my case at least, it is a labor of love.

Thanks guys.
