Whats up guys! My name is Josh and I live about as far west as you can in the USA! I'm from the island of Kaua'i in Hawai'i, and have been interested in the Rossi lever action rifles for a few months. Researching them has led me here, so hello! Look forward to reading what all you experts have to say about these guns! Leaning towards the 92 20" Stainless in 44 mag or 45 colt. I would mostly be using it in the thick brush for wild boar. Also I am not afraid to do a little sprucing up on the rifle since I am a welder and work with metal a lot. Hit me up if you guys wanna share any thoughts or advice! Thanks guys!
Aloha, Josh
Aloha from Hawai'i!

Aloha back atchya, and welcome aboard! In heavy brush, I'd recommend the 16", and 44 Mag for feral hogs.

Re: Aloha from Hawai'i!
Big fan of the .44 Mag and the 20" is a pretty handy package.
I'd probably concede the 16" is handier for getting in and out of vehicles and COULD be a tiny bit more handy in thick brush but growing up in the eastern woodlands if it was too tight for a 20" then I was crawling under briars in the middle of a berry thicket and NOT where I needed to be hunting.
