Rossi R92 .357 Magnum Lever-Action Rifle With 20 Inch Round Stainless Barrel (Cosmetic Blemishes)

This listing is for the Rossi R92 .357 Magnum Lever-Action Rifle with 20 Inch Round Stainless Barrel, offered at a significantly reduced price due to cosmetic blemishes on the metal and wood surfaces. These blemishes are strictly aesthetic in nature and do not affect the mechanical function, accuracy, or reliability of the firearm. For the shooter seeking a rugged, dependable lever gun for range use, hunting, or ranch work, this Rossi R92 represents a high-value opportunity to own a proven platform without paying for a pristine finish. The stainless steel barrel and action provide excellent corrosion resistance, making this a practical choice for adverse conditions.

Overview

The Rossi R92 is a faithful, modern production copy of the classic Winchester 1892 action, chambered in the versatile .357 Magnum. With a 20-inch round stainless barrel, this rifle balances fast handling with a longer sight radius for improved accuracy. The tubular magazine feeds both .357 Magnum and .38 Special ammunition, giving the shooter flexibility for plinking, defense, or small game hunting. This specific unit has been discounted because of cosmetic blemishes—minor scratches, handling marks, or finish inconsistencies that do not compromise the mechanical integrity of the rifle. You are receiving a fully functional firearm that performs to factory specifications, at a price reflecting its cosmetic condition.

Features & Specs

• Chambered in .357 Magnum (also accepts .38 Special +P and standard .38 Special rounds) with a 10-round tubular magazine capacity.
• 20-inch round stainless steel barrel with a 1:30-inch twist rate, providing reliable stabilization for both magnum and special loads.
• Traditional lever-action mechanism with a forged steel receiver and a hammer-forged barrel for consistent accuracy.
• Tubular magazine holds 10 rounds of .357 Magnum or 10 rounds of .38 Special; loading gate on the right side of the receiver for single-round insertion.
• Overall length of 36.5 inches, weight approximately 5.8 pounds, making it a lightweight and maneuverable carbine.

Who It’s For

This Rossi R92 is ideal for the practical shooter who values mechanical performance over visual perfection. It is suited for the hunter who carries a rifle through brush and timber where finish wear is inevitable, the ranch hand who needs a reliable truck or saddle gun, and the recreational shooter who wants an affordable entry into lever-action shooting. The .357 Magnum chambering makes it a natural companion for those who already reload or shoot .357 revolvers, allowing for ammunition commonality. Because the blemishes are cosmetic only, this rifle is also an excellent choice for a project gun—it can be refinished, cerakoted, or customized without the guilt of marring a pristine factory surface. It is not recommended for the collector seeking a safe queen or a perfect showpiece.

• Shooters who prefer function over finish and want a mechanically sound lever gun at a discounted price.
• Hunters and outdoorsmen operating in wet or humid environments where stainless steel provides a durability advantage.
• Those who intend to modify or customize the rifle, as the existing cosmetic damage eliminates concern about devaluing a perfect specimen.
