I just bought this off of gunbroker

[cmshoot]

Was listed at 699 but with tax and shipping 800+ that hurt a little especially since I hit the buy now button.

In the late 1990’s, I paid less than $300 for mine. IIRC

Everything is going up in price nowadays. In 2008 I was buying Marlin and winchester 30-30s all day long for 250-300

Before Cowboy Action was popular, you could pick up a Winchester 1897 for $150-$200.

A stainless lever action in the most universal cartridge ever made?
What's not to love about that??!!

Yep I got it to pair up with my 629 classic.

I bought my Rossi cuz I needed a .45 Colt levergun for CAS, didn’t have much funds (street cop days), and they were cheap. My plans were to “upgrade” to something nicer later on.

Over 20 years later, and I’ve never “upgraded”, because this gun is so light, smooth (I did some work on it), accurate, and reliable.

We’ve got some various 50rd boxes of .44 Magnum at TruPrep, but I’m not sure that Marietta is convenient for you.

Nice!!!! 20 years is a true reliability test. That speaks highly of the manufacture of this firearm.

Sadly it is not. I'm near Huntsville Alabama now. Little place called Owens Cross Roads. Good news is I am a member at this range.
9 miles away. Guess how many times I've been.
