Rossi 92's listed as instock at K-5 Arms Exchange
I was browsing sites for something else, but noticed the vendor shows Rossi 92's in .44 and .45 in stock in limited numbers. This place is located in someplace named Trophy Club, TX.

Looks like they are down to the 16" 44 Mag, with only one left. $556, I sure am glad I got into them when I did. Didn't pay near that for 357 Mag, 44 Mag, and 45 Colt to include all shipping and FFL.

Buds must have got some in, the 44 mag 16" at least.

I logged into buds and checked my past orders.
Records show I purchased a 44 mag 20" on 1/06/2017, for $471.00

I kind of think that the demand is sucking all the lost, NIB Rossi's out of various back rooms and small shops at these prices. It will be interesting to see where this will go if Rossi doesn't send a boat North in the next couple of months.

That's what I think is happening too. I haven't seen a new Rossi at a gun show yet this year in fact the .357 mag I bought last year was the last I saw.

I'd sell mine for four digits if it gets that bad....then I'd regret it.

I'm getting the feeling we're screwed unless someone else starts producing more at an affordable price.

I sure wish the parent, Forjas Taurus SA, would sell Rossi to somebody that gave a rip. What a potential buyer must overcome is a decade and a half of poor customer service. Most firearm buyers don't know the in's and out's of the Company, just the brand name. It would be hard to overcome what Taurus has done to this product line.

Re: Rossi 92's listed as instock at K-5 Arms Exchange
Yep. What happens is when they get scarce is those jerks hoard them then regular guys have no chance to get one. I have 3 now, and might buy more. As a hoarder, LOL, I really cannot think of something better to leave to kids and grandkids. You could leave them Ars, AK 47s, or CDs. But these are fun guns that also serve as defense and hunting tools. And I do not think any state bans them. Just saying. Anybody can pick up a bolt gun or AR and look at it and put it down. But nobody can pick up a 92 without cycling that lever. Just like a puppy chasing a rabbit for the first time or ducks flying south. FWIW
"Any behavior is instinctive if it is performed without being based upon prior experience", lever action guns are instinctive, anyone can pick it up and know how it works... a natural extension of the human arms.

I'm watching closely. My daughter has a NIB 20" SS in 45 Colt that she bought to resell.Ranch Dog wrote: It will be interesting to see where this will go if Rossi doesn't send a boat North in the next couple of months.
