Rossi M92 45 Colt Lever-Action Rifle With 24 Inch Octagonal Barrel (Cosmetic Blemishes)

This Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes) offers a classic cowboy-action profile combined with the robust performance of the .45 Colt cartridge. Designed for shooters who prioritize mechanical reliability over perfect finish, this model delivers the same smooth action and precise rifling as standard-production units, but at a reduced cost due to surface-level imperfections on the receiver, stock, or barrel. Each rifle is fully functional and backed by Rossi’s quality control standards.

Overview

The Rossi M92 is a modern rendition of the legendary Winchester 1892 action, scaled specifically for the .45 Colt cartridge. This particular variant features a 24 inch octagonal barrel, which provides a longer sight radius for improved accuracy and the traditional weight distribution that lever-action enthusiasts prefer. The cosmetic blemishes on this unit do not affect the firearm’s mechanical operation, accuracy, or safety. The action cycles smoothly, the loading gate functions correctly, and the trigger pull meets factory specifications. This is an ideal option for hunters, cowboy action shooters, or collectors who intend to use the rifle rather than keep it as a safe queen.

Features & Specs

• Caliber: .45 Colt (Long Colt); 24 inch octagonal barrel with a 1:38 inch twist rate, optimized for standard-pressure .45 Colt loads commonly used in lever-action rifles.
• Action type: Lever-action with a forged steel receiver, blued finish (with cosmetic blemishes), and a tubular magazine capacity of 10 rounds under the barrel.
• Sights: Fully adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sight and a brass bead front sight; receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting if desired.

The Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes) weighs approximately 6.8 pounds, providing a balanced feel for off-hand shooting. The stock is Brazilian hardwood with a satin varnish finish that may show minor dings or scratches consistent with the blemished designation. The action features a loading gate on the right side of the receiver and a side ejection port for the spent casings. Safety features include a manual cross-bolt safety located at the rear of the receiver.

Who It’s For

This rifle is specifically suited for shooters who value function over appearance. The cosmetic blemishes make it an excellent choice for a working ranch rifle, a trail gun for backcountry use, or a dedicated competition firearm for cowboy action shooting where the finish will naturally wear over time. It is also ideal for first-time lever-action buyers who want to enter the platform at a lower price point without sacrificing the core mechanical quality of the M92 design. Because the blemishes are cosmetic only, the rifle retains full utility for hunting white-tailed deer or feral hogs with proper .45 Colt ammunition. This Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes) is not recommended for collectors seeking pristine presentation-grade firearms.

• Hunters requiring a hard-use rifle with a classic profile and reliable lever action
• Cowboy action shooters who will modify or refinish the rifle for competition
• Budget-conscious buyers who want a full-size lever gun without paying premium prices for a flawless finish
