Those Rossis are not junk. The local store has that model in stock. The safety on the bolt is a bit of an eye sore. The wood could be finished better. The action is not buttery smooth like the Henry but it does work as designed when you handle it with authority.
Steves Gunz makes a replacement filler for that eyesore safety, its a snap to change.
...he also makes a filler that uses a Skinner peep to replace the safety lever. It's the cat's meow.
