Overview

Rossi has been building lever-action rifles for decades, and the Model 92 is a direct descendant of the legendary Winchester 1892 design. This particular Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes) features a full-length octagonal barrel that gives you a traditional Western profile and a longer sight radius for improved accuracy. The cosmetic blemishes are exactly that — surface-level scuffs, minor finish variations, or light handling marks that do not impact the bore, action, or safety of the rifle. If you plan to use this gun for hunting, plinking, or as a truck gun, these small imperfections are barely noticeable once you start shooting.

Features & Specs

• Caliber and Action: Chambered in .45 Colt with a lever-action mechanism that cycles smoothly right out of the box. The action is a scaled-down version of the original 1886, known for handling stout loads reliably.
• Barrel and Sights: 24-inch octagonal barrel with a blued finish. The barrel is threaded at the muzzle? (No, it is a standard 1/2×28 thread? Check your local laws — this model comes with a standard non-threaded muzzle. It includes a brass bead front sight and a buckhorn rear sight, both fully adjustable for windage and elevation.
• Stock and Capacity: Hardwood stock with a straight grip and a crescent buttplate. Magazine tube holds 10 rounds of .45 Colt, giving you plenty of firepower for cowboy action or pest control.

The Rossi M92 45 Colt lever-action rifle with 24 inch octagonal barrel (cosmetic blemishes) weighs in at about 7.5 pounds, making it easy to carry through brush or across a pasture. The octagonal barrel adds a bit of heft up front, which helps steady your aim for off-hand shots.

Who It’s For

This rifle is perfect for shooters who want a reliable lever gun for practical use without paying collector-grade prices. If you are a cowboy action shooter looking for a backup rifle, a hunter who needs a brush gun for deer or hogs, or a homesteader who wants a handy carbine for varmint control, this Rossi delivers. The cosmetic blemishes make it an ideal choice for someone who will actually use the rifle in rough conditions — you will not stress about scratching a safe queen. It is also a great entry point for new lever-action enthusiasts who want the full .45 Colt experience without breaking the bank.

• Ideal for ranch work, trail riding, or farm defense against predators.
• Works well with both standard-pressure .45 Colt and some +P loads (check your manual for specific load recommendations).
