They'll handle loads that'll destroy any 1873 ever made too but they sure as fuuck ain't "better" from a quality of build standpoint. LOL

Meh…Marlins suck and Henrys weigh about 27 pounds. A 27 pound finely executed brass turd is not superior to an actual rifle that is easy to carry, reasonably accurate, and that functions well. And unlike Marlins, I’ve never bought a Rossi that had the front sight canted off in one direction.

A Rossi is a John Browning rifle. That pretty much says all you need to know.
The Rossi 92 is a poor copy of a John Browning design and that's it. Their build quality and QC sucks. From the sharp edges to the rough machining to the poorly finished "Brazillian hardwood" stocks {low build quality} to the often poorly indexed barrels and crappy canted sights {poor QC on the already low build qualtiy}.


And even if all that is true, which it really isn’t, it’s still better than a Henry or Marlin as a useable tool. Hate especially true of the Henry.
