Win. '92 - Marlin '94- Rossi '92 would be my choices...... I love the Win. 94's but I have seen several pistol calibre Trappers here with broken carrier/lifter, and unable to get replacements

Yes I am...

Ok that sounds pretty straight forward. I though I might have to apply extreme pressure to get the pin hole re-aligned (or something tricky like that) Perhaps I'll try "cleaning up" the extractor...
Forum: Leverguns
Has anybody here removed/ replaced the extractor on a Rossi 92 357 mag.?
I am having an issue with one of mine, about 1 out of every 30 cases fall back inside the action instead of ejecting cleanly....

I'd bet that the gun you're considering has a 'K' prefix serial no. (K******)
