Saw a post on Rossi Rifleman Forum that a gent contacted Rossi CS a few days ago and they confirmed that the M92 models have started shipping again.  Wonder how long it will take to get them in the pipeline and at places like Bud's?  Their website lists 357mag, 44mag, 45 Colt, 44-40, and 454 Casull so I wonder if they are going to be producing all those calibers in the new runs.

I also wonder how the machining and QC will be.  Could go well or it could be Remlin all over again.

I will immediatly purchase a brand new 454 casull stainless carbine, instead of being raped on GB for a used one.

What happened that they stopped making them?  Why were they not feeding the pipeline?

I could be tempted by a 357 or 44 - particularly if they can be threaded for a can, or, god forgive and the angels sing, somehow fitted with an integral.

I think they moved production and had to setup in new facility, causing lag in production.

I hope the QC is good. I could go for one in .44-40 to go with my .357.

Picked up a new 357 16" blued yesterday. Fit and finish are outstanding. My dealer said his distributor got about 60 various models and sold out in 1 1/2 days.

Easily threaded, didn't even have to move the sight or barrel band.  
I have a form 1 to build an integral silencer on this rossi but haven't gotten around to it yet.

They moved the production, but they also took it as an opportunity to re-tool.  Quality should be better, but we'll have to wait and see.

Good, hopefully they make the 16" stainless .454 again.  I passed on a new one a couple years ago and have regretted it since.  FWIW I had my 16" 357 threaded last year and used a custom 3-lug mount for my F1 can to avoid shortening the mag tube.  I recently converted the gun to a SBR and just had it engraved so should have it completed in a few days.

God, I hope so!
I hope they step it up & make one in 460S&W or better yet 500S&W!

Since it seems 454 Casull & 460 S&W have the same operating pressures (if I'm incorrect please correct me) would it be feasible to just ream the Casull up to fit 460 S&W ?

This thread is making me happy and my toys account is gonna take a beating. I've been wanting a Rossi R9250203, a R9252203 , and a 16" or 20" in .454 Casull. I didn't know that the halt in production was temporary and thought that maybe I missed out.

Great to hear.  Can't wait to trade in my 1894 in .44 for something that actually groups instead of patterns like a shotgun.  My Trapper M92 in .357 is one of the guns I'll never think of getting rid of.

I'm really wanting a .44, either an SBR or a 16", to suppress.  I might have to go look at one of these.  Anyone have a suggestion for a good gunsmith that can do that kind of work?

I have a couple of rifles i need to sell first but I'm lazy so it might be a while.

Caliber would not be my first choice but with the right load it would make a handy defensive or working varmit gun for out to 100 yards.

Me, 357 or 44 for a golf cart hog gun.

Good news that they are coming back in stock. Now if I can decide on a caliber. Not sure if I want to go with 357, 44 mag, or 45LC. It might come down to what the store has when I get there.

Might be fun to shoot but performance out past 100yds would be poor.  But, if it floats your boat . . . . .

I'll have to keep my eye out for the new Rossi's if they are already showing up. I'm trying to sell or trade my 9mm Vector, but now I am torn between a lever action 357 magnum or a different 9mm PCC.
I reload for both and my Obsidian 45 is rated for a 357 mag. Do I hold out for a factory threaded Marlin or find a new Rossi and have it threaded to fulfill my inner tactical cowboy? Do I continue my search for a 9mm CMMG Guard, which I already have 15 glock magazines for and has arguably a little more practicality?

So many choices

I need a 20" in .44 mag, preferably in stainless although I would settle for a blued version.  I wish Academy would start stocking them.  Makes it too easy.

I'm after a 20" round barreled model in 357.  It can be blued or color case hardened.  I want a Rossi but would take a Winchester/Miroku, Chiappa or Uberti.  Admittedly, the much higher price of these latter makes puts me off.

I am after what I think is a very basic 1892 design.  Apparently, they are not available from Rossi.

I've been looking at all the auction and sales sights.  I can't find anything that isn't $1200 or more or 24" octagonal barrel or...

There also seems to be too many model 1873 on the market in 357.  This model is the one everyone here says is too weak for use with 357.  Did they over-produce them?

Are they letting demand build up for the 1892's?  Are we in for a price hike when they resurface?

I have a Hartford Arms (Rossi) in .45 Colt that is as smooth as butter. it is wonderful to shoot with cowboy loads and can handle the heaviest Bear loads. It is one of my NEVER sell/trade guns.

Haha.  Got tired of waiting for them AND the Marlin 357/38, and grabbed a very nice Remlin in 30-30 today.

I went to GunBroker last night.  They had one Rossi, used.

There are a TON of Winchester 1873's at twice the price of a Rossi but in 357, well, ... it's the wrong rifle design for that cartridge.  Am I right on that point?
Link Posted: 5/9/2018 7:26:56 AM EDT
[#44]
That's the common thinking on this.

But I've been talking to a lot of SASS shooters and others with 1873's that say it is BS.

They say the better steel used today makes it fine to shoot .357Mag rounds.

Maybe not super hot rounds, but any factory seems to be okay.

And doesn't seem to matter if they are Ulberti or Winchester, they work fine.

Go talk to the people over at the Henry rifle forums.

I hope they are still updating their catalog as they are only showing two models for the 92's. Both are identical models with 20 inch round barrels in stainless steel, one in 357 mag and the other in 44 mag. I was really hoping to get one with either a 24 inch or 20 inch octagonal barrel in either 45lc or 357 mag and use a tang sight.

I see five different models on the Rossi web site, more if you consider the cartridge options for each model - stainless and blued; 16" and 20" barrels; and one 16" with a large loop.

The Rossi R92 Round Barrel delivers shorter, lighter versions of their big brothers with 16 or 20 carbine models.  Available in .38/.357, .44 Mag., .45 Colt, .44-40 Win and .454 Casull.  The R92 Round Barrel comes in two finish options - Blue and Stainless.  All R92 Round Barrel models feature crescent buttplates and an extended front sight.  For brush hunting and wilderness packing, Rossi R92 carbine .454 Casull features optional magazine-tube loading and recoil absorbing butt pad.

The problem seems to be they are made of Unobtanium or are vaporware.
