Rossi 92 rechambering?

[BigEyeBob]

On the basis that the rifle is actually chambered for both the 45 colt and the 454 Casull, in much the same way as our we apply for 38 Spec./357 magnum or .44Spec/.44 magnum for the respective lever action rifles otherwise we would not be able to buy the type of ammo not specified if we went for one or the other.

It's a real pain in the ****, not to put too find a point on it... :/

Thank god for the second amendment chaps, or this ******** would be familiar...

We have similar laws here in Australia ,but they vary State to State . The laws inhibit those who are law abiding and do the right thing .The criminals dont abide by the laws and just continue to get away with thier crimes and the law abiding are crushed even further.

What am I missing here?

If your "gun seller" sells Rossi in .45colt, .44mag etc he has to order them from somewhere.

Why can't he order you one in .454?!?

What you're missing is that the OP resides in the United Kingdom (aka: England - not New England or Kalifornia) - where the laws/permits regarding buying and/or possession of ANY firearms are quite different than in most US states.

The importer informs me that there are two chances of getting a rossi 454, Bob Hope and no hope.

Bob Hope is dead and so that leaves...

As a friend who works for one of the major US arms companies told me, there are single gunshops in Texas that order more shooting bits from them in a year than the whole of the UK, it seems we are down the pecking order somewhat...
