What’s out there these? Besides Henry. How are the newer Rossi pumps, and I don’t suppose Remingtons can be had anymore.

find a 70's Rossi. you could hold the trigger and trombone them like a fire hose. the current new ones leave me cold.

The Henry is well made, octagon barrel makes it really heavy, function is fine and accurate. The new Rossi is plastic or wood stock, basic, function on the plastic version is very good, fiber sights, and accurate. The trigger is heavy, consistent and action improves with use. The plastic version is a no brainer for clunking around on an atv or sxs.

I agree with Mikem2 about the Henry but I did not keep mine. The pump 22 that I have kept is a Remington 12c. Both of mine have been flawless and utterly dependable. Not so good if you want to mount a scope. I've tried most of the old Winchester pumps (1890, 1906, 61 and 62a) but they didn't fit me well. Both of the generally well regarded 61's had function issues.

Thanks guys, I am kinda wanting a beater. So maybe I will look at the Rossi.
I’ve mentioned before that I had a Henry 22 mag. Loved it but it shot weird. 2 shots touching at 25 yards or so. The next shot might be off an inch or 2. Scoped or open site it didn’t matter.

I think the Henry is the best out there among new guns. Used ones are a whole 'nuther issue. However, at about $600, its twice the price of a wooden stock Rossi. Good gun no doubt. Good value? Well......not so much

I know where a Rem 572 is sitting, I think the asking price was $375.00, I have to go back up to his shop next week, im going to stock up his store alittle, I can see if he stills have it if you want, PM me and ill get your cell and ill send pictures. He doesn't ship so ill have to buy it and ship it to your FFL so it would be $405.50 as there will be tax and background check. He also had a nice winchester 62 galley gun.

I had two low comb 572s, pre 68. Both were decent but one was really good shooter. Got a 572A w decent bore and it was horrible ( post 68 ). Pops won a BDL w high comb at NRA banquet. Dunno if he ever shot it. Also had a clean pre 68 A model. And a brand new pre 68 receiver/ stock.

Generous offer but step lightly Brother. Sounds like you would be/might be in Straw Purchase territory

Doubt it a straw purchase if he resold to somebody that had to do a 4473

Take a look at it and ask yourself if it is something you would want to do considering the possible consequences. https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/12-1493drover

I would be the actual buyer, but then i deceide to sell it for a profit, he sends me the funds, i ship to the persons FFL, he fills out 4473, background check just like all of us sells guns on here, and as if i read it right he transfer the pistol, his nephew never sold it to him, and uncle never filled out a 4473. This is all talk anyways as the op never contacted me about it and I called my buddy and he said it sold, good buy Rem BDL 572 for $375 in i would say 90 to 95 % condition, thats a steal

That case....sent him money to buy it, crossed state lines, investigated for robbery.....while legal to buy a gun, possibly still not a proper person. Wonder what else there was going on. Shady IMHO.
