Rossi R92 44 Mag Lever-Action Carbine With Hardwood Stock

Overview

The Rossi R92 44 Mag lever-action carbine with hardwood stock is a modern interpretation of the classic Winchester 1892 design, scaled specifically for the potent .44 Magnum cartridge. Manufactured by Rossi in its Brazil facility, this carbine combines traditional lever-action mechanics with contemporary manufacturing tolerances. The action is a scaled-down version of the original Browning design, offering smooth cycling with a short throw lever. The carbine is chambered in .44 Magnum and also accepts .44 Special ammunition without modification. Its 20-inch barrel provides a balance between maneuverability and velocity retention, making it suitable for both range use and field applications.

• Action type: Lever-action with 8-round tubular magazine capacity (9 total with round in chamber)
• Barrel length: 20 inches with a 1:38-inch twist rate for stabilizing .44 caliber projectiles
• Overall length: 37.5 inches; weight: 6.2 pounds unloaded

Features & Specs

The Rossi R92 44 Mag lever-action carbine with hardwood stock incorporates several design elements that distinguish it from other lever guns in its price category. The receiver is machined from steel, with a blued finish applied to the barrel, magazine tube, and lever. The hardwood stock is fitted with a brass crescent buttplate, and the forend is secured by a single barrel band. Sighting equipment consists of a fixed front blade and an open rear sight adjustable for elevation. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, allowing for the addition of a rail or scout-style optic. The safety mechanism includes a cross-bolt safety located at the rear of the receiver, in addition to the standard half-cock hammer position.

• Chambering: .44 Magnum / .44 Special; SAAMI spec chamber dimensions
• Magazine: 8-round tubular magazine (loading gate on right side of receiver)
• Sights: Fixed front blade, open rear sight with elevation adjustment

The finish on the hardwood stock is a satin oil-type treatment that allows the wood grain to remain visible. The stock dimensions include a 13.5-inch length of pull and a drop at comb of approximately 1.5 inches. The lever itself is a standard loop design, not the large-loop variant, which keeps the rifle compact and traditional in profile. The trigger pull weight is factory-set at approximately 5 to 6 pounds, with minimal creep characteristic of the Rossi production line.

Who It’s For

The Rossi R92 44 Mag lever-action carbine with hardwood stock is designed for shooters who require a repeating carbine capable of handling heavy .44 Magnum loads in a compact package. It is suited for hunters pursuing medium-sized game such as white-tailed deer, feral hogs, and black bear at typical woods ranges under 150 yards. The carbine is also appropriate for recreational target shooters who appreciate the manual cycling of a lever action and the versatility of shooting both .44 Magnum and .44 Special ammunition. Its 6.2-pound weight makes it manageable for carrying during extended field outings, and the 20-inch barrel does not over-penetrate in dense cover. Law enforcement and security personnel who require a long-gun option for vehicle or stationary duty may also consider this carbine for its reliability and ease of maintenance.

• Hunters needing a fast-handling brush gun for thick cover and short-range shots
• Recreational shooters seeking a traditional lever-action platform with modern chambering
• Collectors or shooters interested in a scaled-down 1892 pattern rifle in a magnum pistol caliber
