Howdy -

I've been off the board mostly for a couple years. Job, a couple moves, married off a daughter, and a new Grand daughter this April....

Anyway - I'm wanting a 1892 or clone in .45 Colt. Mainly for farm use with mild 200-250 grain lead loads. Occasional deer hunting with lead bullets.

Thoughts? I can't even remember who's makin' what anymore?

Thanks,
Mike P

Rossi 92, try to find one without the safety. They make fine farm guns!

for not buying a Rossi 45 Colt back in '01. It was selling for $250, just prior to the CAS guys running the prices through the ceiling. Still looking (every three years or so) for a pre-"safety" one in the used rack. They just don't pop up very often.

a couple of times. I have no dog in this hunt. Just been watching it for a couple of weeks.

Just saw this one. No, you can't load it as hot as a '92, but the '73's are sweet guns!

than $800. It has been slicked up by Steve Young and has a Foolproof. I guess I need to shoot it more.

which would it be?

The first was Jim Taylor's that he had slicked up and written an article about. I should have NEVER let that one go.

Both of mine are octagon and they look great but but they don't handle nearly as nice as the round barreled carbines.
