Hello from Long Island, NY

Greetings, Riflemen and Rifleladies!

I brought a 92 20" SS .44 Magnum home on Tuesday. Found it on GunBroker for $100 less than what everyone else was getting, and figured I would go for it since they're not going to get cheaper any time soon. Looking forward to trying it out this weekend. So far all I know is it functions fine with snap caps. Finish is really quite nice. Wood to metal fit is not up to Henry standards but I didn't pay Henry prices.
It makes a nice companion to my Uberti 1873 24" 45LC.

Welcome,
Weight tends to be a lot less than with a Henry also.

That doesn’t count as a companion. Now you need a 44 revolver. Or a 92 in 45 Colt. I recommend both.

I already have a Uberti .44 SAA with 7 1/2" barrel.
