Rossi Rifleman

A feller on the Marlin Owners forum offered this to me and I just couldn't resist. The twin to my .45! $450, plus the shipping, PayPal, and transfer bs. Says he took it in a trade and never shot it, just looking to roll it over to reuse the cash again. Looks to be in outstanding condition.

I missed seeing that one

It was only offered for sale to me via pm, not on the open forum. I have no idea why, maybe my comments when he first showed photos of it caught his attention and he remembered that I said I wanted one just like it.

Score

And we might not see any more. Very nice buy!

OH MY! It came looking for you!!

Considering the search comments I see on this and other forums, you must have been born under a lucky star finding that configuration, especially at that price. New, I paid $579 OTD for mine after an extensive search, 32 months ago, and they were rare as hens teeth then.

I look forward to your range impressions. Good luck.

You know, the guy I'm buying it from had previously offered it to another member in a trade, and that other member had also come to me - asking me if I'd like to buy it if he did the trade. So this rifle was dangled in front of me TWICE. I took that as a sign!

And the 24" stainless .45 I have, was not what I wanted. I wanted a blued one. But the shop had one 24" blue and one 24" stainless. The blued one had a canted barrel with lopsided sights. The stainless was perfect. That rifle has turned out to be one of the best guns I've ever owned!

I think it must be my destiny to own stainless 24" Rossi rifles!

Very nice score keep u posted to how it shoots for you.

That, is a nice rifle.

My only Rossi is that very model. I took mine hunting for the first time this year and scored. Good for you !
