357 levergun

Post by Elk Creek »

I found this Rossi r92 in the shop the other day… tang sight ordered and the front sight will be replaced with a globe front…. Man is this thing smooth. I shot it at the shop it has an old feature, it makes you giggle every time you pull the trigger! It’s a 357 mag, I will probably shoot 38’s through it mainly though.

I love my Rossies. Always thought about getting one in .357 Mag, just never have since I already have a NEF so chambered.

Sure keep spending all that money.
Sako will be able to get it....

Seriously though
It is a lot of fun ringing steel with 38's
Not quite as much as 32-20 but close.

In a couple weeks I will have my Martini cadet .357 back in my hands. I may have to load up a bunch of .357 rounds and take the Martini, 77/357, and Marlin out. I have not shot the Marlin .357 yet, but my Marlin .44 is entertaining at the range. Lever guns can be fun, even if it is from a bench at the public range.

I put one of those on the raffle I am putting together, I was pretty stoked to see it on the shelf, load a raffle with stuff I want to win.

Your retired, and were going to the range on friday. Get up here with all that ammo you need to waste :lol:
Between the two of us we have 3 357 lever guns and 2 44mag lever guns at our disposal. We should be able to make short work of your surplus.

Wouldn't that place you closer to the new range day destination than if you left from home? Make it a family event.
