Back in October, I was at the LGS, picking up a new Ruger GP100. There was a nice stainless Rossi 1892 44 Mag with a 20 inch barrel. I asked to hold it. Much to my surprise, my eyes could sight with the irons just fine. I thought "Hoop de Do! I can see again!" My eyes had previously gotten so bad, I'd pretty much given up 20 years ago and started putting scopes on all my rifles. Things had started to improve again, but one thing the cancer/chemo did was knock my eyes for a loop; my prescription changed dramatically.
So now its 6 months later, and that Rossi has been gnawing at me. Since that time, I've noticed they've got a version with a 24 inch barrel. I'm thinking of it for whitetail deer. I'm thinking of casting my own.
Anybody out there shot a 24" Rossi '92? What did you think?
