Features & Specs

The Rossi M92 carbine .38/357 lever action rifle with 20-inch barrel (cosmetic blemishes) is built around a smooth, short-throw lever action derived from the legendary John Browning design. It feeds both .38 Special and .357 Magnum rounds interchangeably, giving you the flexibility to use inexpensive range ammo or potent defensive loads. Here are the standout features you can expect:

• 20-inch blued barrel with a 1:30 twist rate, optimized for .38 and .357 cartridges, offering consistent accuracy at typical carbine ranges.
• Tube magazine holds 10 rounds of .357 Magnum or 11 rounds of .38 Special, giving you generous capacity for a lever gun.
• Adjustable rear sight and brass bead front sight for quick target acquisition; receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting if you prefer optics.

This Rossi M92 carbine .38/357 lever action rifle with 20-inch barrel (cosmetic blemishes) weighs about 5.8 pounds unloaded, making it easy to carry all day in the field or on the range. The hardwood stock and forend have a classic profile, though the blemishes may include minor dings, scratches, or uneven stain. Mechanically, the action is smooth out of the box and benefits from Rossi’s recent quality control improvements. The .38/357 chambering also means low recoil with .38 Special loads, ideal for new shooters or those wanting a gentle plinker.

Who It’s For

This Rossi M92 carbine .38/357 lever action rifle with 20-inch barrel (cosmetic blemishes) is perfect for the practical shooter who values performance over cosmetics. It suits cowboy action enthusiasts looking for an affordable backup gun, hunters needing a lightweight brush gun for deer or hogs, and anyone wanting a reliable truck gun that you won’t cry over if it gets a few more dings. Because of the blemishes, this is also an excellent choice for a first lever-action purchase: you get the same internals and barrel as the full-price model at a significant discount. If you plan to refinish the wood or Cerakote the metal, the savings make this a great project base. However, if you require a pristine presentation piece for a collection, consider a standard-grade model.
