Okay.
Must be onmy end then.
hanks for checking for me.

I saw the message about delays, I was just trying to check the details.
I haven't picked up a Rossi 92 yet, so theres no rush for the parts to fix the wonky safety.

Can't buy them locally because I have yet to find a gun shop in Orange county California that stocks anything Rossi.
(Oh how I miss B&B gun sales in Westminster...)

Hm, clicking on stuff on stevesgunz causes my antivirus alert to pop up.


He may have gotten hacked and not be aware of it.

Since you know him, you may want to let him know.

In case it just my anti virus being overachieving, I'd like to ask if someone here would like to look up the site to confirm or deny similar results.

Thanks.

And yes, Gilligan wore one of these.  Lord knows where he got it.

WPG also has the blue jumper uniform as well, but for what you want to do I think you'ld be better off with the whites.  Easier to take care of, and you'll be glad of the cotton in a Nebraska summer.

Oopsies.  I neglected your original question.  I honestly don't know.  Whenever I worked on '92s I simply worked on the OEM parts.  I never tried swapping between manufacturers.  I will say, to most outward appearances, everybody copies the original '92 fairly closely.  It doesn't take much for something to NOT FIT however.

Steve at Stevesgunz would be a much better source.  If he doesn't know, nobody does.

Based on my experience with black powder in my .45 Colt, the bore can become fouled after just one stage.

The bore being fouled is immaterial as long as your bullet carries enough lube to keep it soft; the next shot will wipe it
out  Changing to a .44-40 will not affect bore fouling.  The .44-40does a much better job of keeping fouling from the action, however annealing 45 Colt cases does a stellar job also.  I just thinned my carrier in my '73s and Henry so buildup of fouling in the carrier mortise doesn't hinder smooth operation for even a 3-day, 12 stage match.  Rugers seem to need a bit more cylinder/barrel gap than do Colts or most clones due in part, to cylinder bushing design.  But just with bullet lube, the lube for the gun needs to be of type compatible with BP.
