I just bought one of these guns. Is imported by GForce. Our local gun dealer was selling them for $600.00. Yes it is based on the 92 platform. After oiling it, it smoothed up very nice. I went to the range with several different ammo. I shot .38 special, and 357. It took everything I put though it.
The gun performed extremally well. I personally at the very beginning had a problem. Being use to my short stroke 73, It took me several times to remember to work the action all the way forward. ( user mistake, not the gun's fault).
Overall I am very pleased, after putting over 300 rounds I have not had one malfunction or fail to fire. It will be a great rifle for all those wanting to get into Cowboy Action shooting.
Will it ever be a race gun? NO mostly because it does have a standard long lever throw. But it will get someone into the game for a very reasonable price. Plus It is really fun to shoot
