LSI Puma 22LR Revolver
I received a notice that Buds has a new Rossi in stock, a 4.6" barreled SA 22LR revolver.

I almost ordered one last week, but the M92 called my name a little louder. I may still get one after I find some reviews.

Re: LSI Puma 22LR Revolver
I'm assuming these are NOT made by Rossi but by one of many Italian manufacturers. Can anyone verify? How ugly is that keylock feature?

These are Chiappa made IIRC, same gun/ different grip as the Cimarron Plinkerton.
All Zamac with steel barrel and cylinder charge hole liners.

Nothing unusual about it at all......Chiappa has made the PUMA line of guns for LSI under contract for several years..........both revolvers and long guns.

That's typical Bud's slight of hand regarding guns from distributers/importers who don't actually manufacture firearms. Howa has a well respected name and is the flagship line from Legacy.
Other outlets for these guns have been less artful regarding the actual manufacturer.

Here's a post ( scroll down to #88) of a chap who'd just bought one and his opinion of it.
