Simply could not resist the little 20-inch barrel Rossi Model 92 clone-carbine at my local Happy-Gunstuff retailer, something to keep my .44-40 Vaquero company, and at very reasonable price. Comes with the original box (that says Interarms) and manuals, and is un-fired. Older NOS gun with No weird safety on the receiver. Looks a lot like this (but is not this) with a black-ish stain on the wood: (not my picture). Ordered-up a bunch more ammo from Lucky Gunner, this is coming to the Gunblogger Rendezvous XI with me. Woot-Howdy!
I’m still annoyed that my dad sold the Model 94 in 30-30. Five or six digit serial #… Guy had no sense of nostalgia.

You know, that was the assault rifle of its day.
Sorry, couldn’t resist.

And a badass caliber!

If the butt is concave, with a metal liner, you might want to order up an Action Products Kick Killer. It’s a leather, lace-on pad that looks the vintage part but has modern shock-absorbing polymers in the butt end. I got mine from Cabela’s and it turned my Rossi 92 from a painful kicker into a fun shooter. Your shoulder will thank you.

Hey my friend, I appreciate that! It is indeed concave and steel, with some edges that look like they could use a good radius! The stock is not quite as pretty as the one pictured and looks like it was stained with black shoe-polish.

I just LUVS me some lever action rifles!
My little Marlin 1894C in 357 is one of the sweetest shooting guns I’ve ever fired, let alone owned.

These are supposed to be a love it or hate it thing, but accurate.

The gun is pretty damn accurate, too.
I can clang steel all day long at 100 yards with open sights.
Pretty amazing for a gun that my wife calls “cute”….
