Rossi M92 45 Colt Lever-Action Rifle With 24 Inch Octagonal Barrel (Cosmetic Blemishes)

This listing is for the Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes). As a factory-overstock unit with visible surface imperfections, this rifle offers the same mechanical integrity, chamber specifications, and reliability as a standard-grade model at a reduced price point. The cosmetic blemishes do not affect function, accuracy, or safety. This is a direct-from-manufacturer offering for shooters who prioritize performance over appearance.

Overview

The Rossi M92 is a modern reproduction of the Winchester Model 1892, chambered in .45 Colt and fitted with a 24-inch octagonal barrel. This long-barrel configuration delivers higher muzzle velocity and a flatter trajectory compared to shorter carbine variants. The action is a scaled-down version of the classic 1886 design, providing smooth cycling with both .45 Colt and .45 Schofield ammunition. The cosmetic blemishes on this unit are limited to the blued finish and wood stock; the barrel bore, chamber, and internal components are unaffected. This rifle is mechanically new and has not been fired beyond factory proof testing.

Features & Specs

• Caliber: .45 Colt; 24-inch octagonal barrel with a 1:38 twist rate; overall length of 42.5 inches; weight approximately 7.5 pounds
• Receiver and barrel constructed from blued steel; straight-grip stock and forend crafted from Brazilian hardwood; magazine tube capacity of 13 rounds

The 24-inch octagonal barrel provides additional barrel mass for reduced recoil impulse and improved heat dissipation during sustained shooting. The .45 Colt chamber allows for standard-pressure factory loads as well as cowboy-action loads. Cosmetic blemishes may include scratches, dings, or uneven bluing on the metal surfaces; minor discoloration or compression marks on the wood stock. These do not impact the rifle’s functional lifespan or accuracy potential.

This Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes) is suited for the budget-conscious cowboy action shooter, the collector seeking a shooter-grade rifle, or the hunter who wants a classic lever-action in a proven big-bore cartridge. The 24-inch barrel and octagonal profile appeal to those who prefer the traditional appearance and balance of longer lever guns.

It is also appropriate for the handloader who wants a robust platform for experimenting with .45 Colt loads.
