Gunsmith for Winchester 1892 clone?

[Naphtali]

The only gunsmith who specializes in Rossi/Puma 92 lever rifles I'm aware of is Steve Young. He is booked far into the future. I have a Rossi/Puma 92 for which I need substantial work done. Please identify gunsmiths whom you trust to do good action AND stock work on the rifle.

these 92's are not all that complicated,, they just have some small quirks you need to know.
Larry Crow from competitive edge gunworks put out a how-to video on the 92's he shows how to pull them down and put them back together and what your looking at in there.

he explains it slow and in plain English.
anyway that video explains the gun well enough.
I would not hesitate to send them one of my rifles to repair or just slick up for C-boy shooting.

I used this guy last year to do some work on my Rossi Ranch Hand (I had him thread the barrel for a Suppresor):

Check out his website, he specializes in Rossi's and his turn around time for action work appears to be 6-8 weeks.


I don't know if he does wood work but if he does it'll certainly add to the wait time (and expense).

Keep in mind we are creeping up on the Xmas and New Years Holidays and folks tend to shut down during that time frame, the holidays will certainly add to your wait time.

Lots of how-to videos on YouTube.

Coyote Cap has a very good reputation. I do all my own work, but I know people that have used him. They are all very happy with the work he did.

I would not hesitate to send them one of my rifles to repair or just slick up for C-boy shooting. What I want done is orders of magnitude more demanding than I am capable of doing. The short description of results wanted is: Convert my Rossi/Puma 92 stainless steel 454 Casull carbine to 45 Colt rifle with half-pistol grip and shotgun butt stock - of which I have the 24-inch octagon 45 Colt barrel and full length magazine tube assembly.

Since my solitary 45 Colt load, presently used in my Freedom Arms 97, is comparable with a top end Ruger Blackhawk's, that is why I insisted on using the 454 Casull action as the basis for my rifle.
