  1. I agree with you on Gun Broker but if you want to buy a new one from a distributor or a gun store you can get carbines easily enough but the supply of 20" and 24" rifles is nil.

     

    A lot of folks won't / don't buy guns at auctions for one reason or another. In my area there are none and there are none at the last 3 gun shows I have been to. Not sure why.

    We have a local dealer hear who has 92s on the shelf all the time.

    I was just in the store this morning.

    They have a 45 , 44mag and a 357 all 20 " setting on the shelf.

     

    But like I said the new Remlins are pretty good now.

  2. They are not what the gammers use but they work.

    Some need more work then others , but they do work.

     

    You would be better off buying a used SXS from a pawn shop .

    Or asking around a Cowboy shoot for a used SXS .

    Even a used Stevens 311 or 5100 and cut down ghe barrel if you want it shorter.

  3. Have any of you done a search in new 92's? The supply is dwindling.

    I disagree on that comment.

    I have been to three gun shows in the last month and there was lots of 92s.

    If you go on Gunbrokers there are lots of 92s.

     

    The real complait should be Not everyone is giving them away anymore.

    They are great guns and with a little spring work .

    They can be made to run pritty very well.

     

    Before short stroke kits come about for 66s and 73s.

    The best fastest rifles was a 92 and a Marlin.

     

    Alot of cowboys just hang on to there 92s now.

    Not every one is about speed and most cowboys cant out run the 92 anyways.

     

    But there is a lot of 92s New out there.

    And the New Marlins are pretty good now also.

     

    You all have a Marry Christmas now you hear !

  4. I own one in 44 mag .

    I did not buy it for Cowboy .

    I tryed it one time so I could speak from experience.

    It works slowly and run it hard it will work.

    I run a clean match the one time I used it.

    I will never use one again.

    It will never be competitive.

    But I have seen serval cowboys run them slowly with little fuss.

     

    Again I say they can run, But slowly .

    If you try to run with any speed, The wheels will come off the bus.

     

    A 92 would be a much much better option !

  5. I got a 73 & a 66 in 44 special Tom, nicer cartridge than mag I think.

    Me too

    I have a 66 and a 73 in 44 special.

    Love them both

    I have three 92s in 44 mag .

    If I was to choise any rifle in 44 mag ,

    It would be the 92 .

    Run them down to light 44 specials,

    Or Hot 44 mag .

    The 92 will do it all.

     

    I look at the 66 and 73 as sexy 44 special rifles .
