Wow! What a GREAT instructional video. Very comprehensive. I have a Rossi R92 I purchased recently but was hesitant to disassemble the action. Now I’m not. Thank you VERY much!
Thank you sir! Your thorough and comprehensive demonstration was a life saver to me after I disassembled my Rossi and was flummoxed on getting it back together! I especially appreciated your tips on making sure bolt pin was flush and set screw not too tight. It took me 8 hours, and some cramped fingers, but with your help was able to clean and reassemble. Hopefully next time will be easier.
Wonderful instructional piece; thank you sir. I am about a month away from my first lever action rifle since 1984, and I have chosen the M92 big loop blued in 45LC. I have heard about issued with loose screws which can be easily remedied with a little blue loctite. As a hobbist gunsmith I enjoy the self-tuning of the internal parts via buffing. I can't wait to get my hands on her as I've always admired John Wayne's Trapper carbine.
Love your videos, very well done! I have four of these R92's, and I've worked over all of them. I do extensive de-burring, polishing, and spring modifications. I shorten the hammer spring, replace the ejector spring with a lighter one, thin the loading gate spring so that it's not so stiff, shim the trigger spring and polish the mating surfaces, very lightly stone and polish the sear and hammer hook, shorten the magazine spring, smooth and polish the cartridge channel from the gate into the magazine, and de-burr and slightly chamfer the chamber mouth. And anything else I see that I want to smooth up. Makes these rifles really sing! I'd like to have a dozen more of them!
Thank you for making this video! I just ordered one and was a little worried about disassembly. Not anymore!! Great camera work and easy to follow directions. I'm almost looking forward to taking my rifle apart.
Thank you for this video, got a rossi 92 .454 in stainless steel and looks like previous owner shot black powder outta her, very smooth action, I cleaned and oiled her really good and now she's almost too pretty to shoot
Thanks for your video! I got ahold of a Rossi large loop lever and I wanted swap out parts to make my 20" barrel '92 to look more like Lucas McCain's rifle from the "Rifleman" show. You saved me $ at the gunsmith. I only struggled reassembling the tang/trigger group. That was WAY "fiddly" (as you say) to line back up for me!
Awesome thank you, very well done and explained. I just got a R92 and the ejector spring was so strong it would throw empty cases 10' so got a 7/32 I think it was, spring from a hardware store cut to stock ones length and put all back together and works great now. Smoothed out edges on the loading gate too. and took some metal off the loading gate to reduce the tension so it loads easier now. Couldn't have done it without a video like this. Thank You so much.
Thanks for this video, this made this take down a breeze! It made cleaning my Rossi Ranch much easier since it's basically the same setup.I would have had a hard time if not for having this knowledge ahead of time.
I am Brazilian. I am police in Rio de Janeiro . thanks for the video. I had many doubts about the maintenance , disassembly and assembly of the carbine rossi M92 . now I do not have more . thank you so much.
first of all, thank you for the video!! first time ever taking my Rossi down first time ever taking a lever down so it was a real adventure I'm not ashamed to say it took me 5 hours from start to finish I must have watched the video a 100 times or parts of it to understand the skills correctly if I would not have had your tutelage I would have given up but I knew if I just had to keep my cool I traded an AK for my Rossi 92 and never looked back next is my old Sears&Roebuck Model 54 AKA Winchester model 94 30/30 had that one longer but have been afraid to tackle the lever break down process then my old Remington 742
Hey, thanks for that, when I bought my first Rossi I could see it hadn't been taken down before and cleaned properly so I thought I would have a look on line for instructions-----there didn't appear to be any so stripped it down anyway, what I did find was a load of black hard gunk and leaves and even a twig wedged in the trigger spring ( under it) ! Well done for keeping your cool, thats all it takes is allowing yourself time to do it and not rushing things and it would have been tricky if you still had the original springs----------if you do have the original springs perhaps your next adventure could be the fitting of an aftermarket set, it will transform the rifle, thanks again for the positive comments and it sounds like you've got the bug for stripping down your rifles,i find it really interesting seeing how they operate, cheers.
Many thanks for this video. I too have one of the older Rossi 92's, without that bloody safety on the bolt, although mine is in .44WCF. I bought it used and although it was very clean then and I have done my best to keep it that way, there will certainly come a day when I will need to take it apart for a thorough cleaning. I now have a go-to video guide. Cheers.
Thanks for the video. I never cleaned mine this good since I got it. Had a few problems with the spring and putting the trigger back in but all is well now.
Didn't notice the tint till you mentioned it. Good eye. I would add a small warning - I inserted a "spent" shell into a friends rifle once and because it had not been resized yet, it stuck and we could not extract it. We even tried a full length dowell and a nylon hammer and it still would not budge. Had to take it to a smith for extraction. Great vid, thank you for it. //ji
Excellent video very helpful I somehow volunteered to repair the Shooting Club Rossi 92. The rifle had no ejector so by some miracle I was able to purchase a ejector ,spring and collar .With having sever arthritis my hands I was unable to insert the ejector has you described. I ended up inserting a spent case in the breach . then inserting the assembled Ejector in the breach block sliding it up to the bullet . I made a drift out of 1 1/4 x 1 1/2 timber with a short projection on the end of the timber which fit in the slot end of the breach block . I put the rifle with the barrel on some wood ,inserted the timber drift into the breach block ,pressed down making sure the ejector was located properly and gave the drift a sharp tap .It worked perfectly on the second time as the spring bar which retains the collar was slightly bent up and when inserting the pin it dislodged the extractor. when trying it your way I was wishing you were here to do it . Thanks for making this video
Thats great, thanks for the kind comment John,glad you managed it and by the sounds of things you've come up with another way of doing things ! I too suffer from Arthritis but not in the hands, knees for me, how does that saying go ---"Arthritis is the mother of all invention" :} cheers John.
PS, forgot to say that my ejector spring has been changed for a lighter one which makes my way easier to do, if your club gun has the original spring it can be harder to do ! If you think about changing springs and only do one, do the ejector spring, just changing this one spring will make it much easier to re assemble and not launch your spent rounds into the next county !! cheers again John,Trey.
Sir...many thanks!!!Your video helped me a lot...I'm from Rossi 92 land...I hadn't seen any brazilian...explained so well as you disassembly and assembly. Best wishes!!!
Thanks for that Jeffrey,please do be careful though it can be a fiddle to get them back together,my other vid "first time strip down" will give a better insight especially if its a new rifle, they can be very tight,cheers anyway and thanks for looking in.
Thanks again, I completed the strip/reassembly last night. It is an older rifle, I bought it back in 1999, so it has seen some action. Like you mentioned, there was a lot of fiddling. My biggest surprise was when my wire wasn't "stout" enough and my spring shot off a few minutes later. :) Luckily I found it and got it back on ok. The rest went pretty smoothly.
Great video and thanks for taking the time to do all that work! I didn't see you take off the forend and what I'm trying to find is a place to buy a longer front band screw. I have an original Winchester M-92 and the band screw goes right in. The Rossi screw is extremely difficult to get started and I haven't found a place on the Internet that sells a longer replacement screw or tells how to replace it. Getting parts from Rossi is impossible as near as I can find out. I called them and the guy said he'd back order one or email me when they had any. This was 2-years ago and again, a year ago. I want to replace the wood on mine but this screw is the fly in the ointment. Once again, thanks for the video!
Hi,thanks for the comments, there is a German company that does all Rossi parts, not sure about the shipping but you could enquire, its " waffen firkinghoff" just type that in and find the site then click the English button top left, good luck, cheers.
This is interesting, over here in the states we hear you guys have only have access to breech loading long arms. So what magazine capacity are you allotted over in the UK?
@@vthompson1987 Hi, people think we are restricted in the UK but its actually not that bad, we can have any calibre any Mag size and any rifle the only restriction is we cannot have full or semi auto except for .22lr in which case it can be semi auto (Ruger 10/22) and many others, centre fire rifles that are semi auto have to be converted to straight pull ie; I can have an AK47 but it has to be straight pull, loads 1 round at a time but no restriction on mag size, I could have an AR15 in any style as long as its straight pull, so as you can see its really quite good, to own rifles in the uk you have to have "good reason" ie you cant just decide you want a gun and go and get one, there is a long process and you have to belong to a government approved club or for Hunting, cheers.
Thank you for making these instructional videos. I've worked on many of firearms throughout the years (mainly semi-automatic pistols, revolvers, and pump action shotguns), but it's only been the past few years that I've worked on any lever action rifles. You've managed to make the Model 1892 Winchester (and it's clones) an easy firearm to disassemble/reassemble. I've come to like the Model 1892 Winchester best of all for 2 reasons. First; it's a pistol caliber rifle/carbine that's relatively cheap to shoot (especially .38 special and .357 magnum). Second; its strength - it's more than strong enough for any cartridge that will fit the action (it's twin locking lugs are actually stronger than the single rear locking lug used in the rifle calibers Model 1894 Winchester). I have a Rossi in .357 mag/.38 special and a Winchester in .44 magnum and love them both. Either an 1873 Uberti or Winchester (Miroku) Short Rifle is next on my "bucket" list, with a 336 Marlin right behind. From the Mid-Western USA, I want to thank you! I appreciate the hard work you put in making your videos.
Thanks for the kind comments, I bought my first Rossi 357 in New Zealand and it was a sorry looking rifle but I just loved the look of it, got it home and thought I will google taking it apart etc and found nothing much of any use,i went ahead and took it apart and was glad I did, it was so full of dirt and twigs and leaves, literally leaves under the trigger!! I don't think it had ever been apart or cleaned which is what gave me the thought of putting up some videos of my own so people could take them apart to clean, glad you found them useful, thanks again for the comments and cheers from Wiltshire in southern England.
@@treywall3683, you are very welcome. I feel I didn't praise you enough in my first comment. Your series of R92 videos made tearing down and working on a Rossi extremely simple. You explained (and showed) each step you made along the way and how certain parts interacted with one another and why a certain sequence/order needed to be followed. Since a Rossi R92 is so closely related (virtual clone) to a Winchester Model 1892, your series of R92 videos are also the best Winchester 1892 videos on CZcams too. I find the Internet and CZcams to be an incredible tool/database. It still boggles my mind that I'm communicating with someone half way around the planet just as easy (in some ways easier) as if I called them on my cellphone. The Internet/Social Media has led to nefarious individuals looking for like minded people to plan/commit horrendous acts, but it's also opened a wealth of knowledge for common everyday people to tap into that was impossible to even imagine just 20+ years ago. It's incredible to think that virtually every published peice of information in the history of mankind is at my fingertips (and can be translated into my language too!).
Yep your right, the internet/communication is amazing,i remember when I was a nipper having to walk miles to find a Phone box and then only having 1 x 2p in my pocket and then hoping the Phone was working !! Thanks again.
Best video there is with great detail that helped me alot, but I think your should have made the order of disassembly the same as reassembly, that is : capture mainspring remove: lower tang trigger assembly then grub screw and pin lever and locking bolts When starting as you do, capturing main spring and then moving on to removing grub screw and pin, lever and locking bolts, the lever and locking bolts are stuck in my gun.... Sure has to do with tolerances in each gun, but be advised, some just might get into trouble here.
Need you help, mate! Shot the initial 70 rds, and everything worked perfectly. Now attempting disassembly for cleaning and the lever assembly won’t come out ... could I impose on you for guidance?
Ok, crisis averted; had to remove the tang bolt such that the lever would come out. I note that in your disassembly, the lever comes out first, before the tang and hammer, but in reassembly, the lever goes in before the tang/hammer. Reassembly went well. I think when I disassemble again, I’ll remove tension from the hammer with the wire, pull the tang screw and remove the tang and hammer before removing the lever. Yours looks a little more worn in...
I have an 1892 rifle (original) and have to try and replace that goofy little ejector collar spring, it's not easy! I had to order one after my first disappeared to parts unknown.
I have a newer one, the machining marks and overall fit and finish is absolutely horrible compared to the one you have here. I used your video to strip mine down and spent over 6 hours polishing and smoothing the bolt, hammer, trigger, lugs, lever and especially the loading port (that thing was a finger slicer!). It was interesting to read you like the quality of the newer ones. Great vid, thank you!! Cheers :)
I think it must still be a bit of a lucky dip with regards quality,however,i was able to inspect mine at the shop before parting with cash and yep the quality of my new one was better than the older second hand ones I've had.Your right,those edges are like razor blades,i used mine in the kitchen for a while to chop veg :} Glad you like the vid,cheers.
I couldn't have taken my new rossi apart and put it back together w/o this video so thank you. It was still extremely challenging. Probably the worst weapon I have ever torn into. I did some upgrades from Steve's Gunz and I tried to smooth all the moving parts. Somehow I managed to make the action stiffer than it was. It's a fun shooter and I really want to like it but the action and assembly/take down are less than desirable.
Hi, sorry to hear your action is stiffer after reassembly but it may be 1 of 2 things, remove the bolt pin stop screw and try the action without it, does it loosen up ? if it does it means the screw is too long from factory. If it is still stiff make sure the bolt pin is all the way in FLUSH with the side of the bolt, if this pin protrudes even the slightest it can jam up the action, cheers.
@@myrossirifle it took a minute to realize I didn't need to disassemble the entire thing to do what you said. You sir definitely know your way around this rifle. I didn't quite have the pin in deep enough. Now I have the smooth action I was hoping for. Thanks again
I bought one of these today, it's like new condition fired 5 shots through it. Mine though says puma m92 imported by lsi Alexandria Virginia. Chambered in 357/38 pistol caliber. Not really sure what I got but I fell in love with it soon as I saw it. I think it's the same Rossi made in Brazil firearm though.
I think they have a bunch of different names in different markets. I bought mine a few months ago in Germany (new, from a store) as a "M 67" but the manual says "Puma" and the "Model 67" just stands for the .357 mag chambering, according to the manual. In the US they are sold as "R92" it seems because they are based on Model '92 Winchester. However, the manual in my box looks like it was designed and printed in the 1980ies (two-color print with pre-photoshop, analog graphics and all). So I don't think they ever changed the design.
@@maximilianmustermann5763 Awesome. One of my favorite rifles to shoot though sadly since I bought mine there has been no ammo available anywhere other than 38 special so I've had limited shooting.
Nice to see the older R92s. Just bought one in stainless steel and I was so disappointed in the number of non-stainless parts. My loading gate, bullet loading feed ramp, bolt tangs, ejector rod and new safety switch were all blued parts! Very unhappy. I have called Rossi to se if they can get me at least the loading gate in stainless. It just doesn't look good with the blued gate against the stainless steel frame!
This is just what I needed - got my 92 a few weeks back and only had a couple of occasions to shoot with it since, but wanted to give it a clean and check out his it all works. Your vid has turned up in my feed suggestions at the perfect time, very informative and a great help. Many thanks! Don't suppose you fancy doing a similar one for the 45-70 Govt Rio Grande?
Great video. I was really hoping you would go into the firing pin assembly. I just got my first 92 SRC and the striker floats. If it's all the way forward it won't fire. Think it is missing a spring
Very good video Would you please Denonstrate to me How to adjust the Left and rRght cartridge guides to get the Cartridge to better line up the Cartridge to the chamber ? Also Demonstrate How to adjust the Cartridge lifter to raise the rear of the cartridge to lessen the feed angle for better feeding of the cartridge into the chamber ? Thank you very much
Yep,bit more than 38/357 but you will be fine reloading,lot cheaper,some people argue its not cheaper to reload because then you shoot more ! I say yes but i am shooting more because its cheaper ! go figure,cheers.
Yes it is,you can adjust the strength of the hammer strike by replacing the main spring,don't go too light though or you may get light strikes on the primer,you should hear the pin rattle backwards and forwards if you shake the bolt,if the firing pin is tight you need to have someone look at it or give it a good clean until it rattles.
+My Rossi Rifle ...my only problem was I used too small a piece of wire..small in diameter..the spring folded over the wire ..and I had to push the spring back to get wire out..anyway great video and greetings from Vancouver island..
+wayne daley Yep it needs to be a stout piece of wire those large paper clips work for me,the reason i use wire is so that i can bend it over so that it can't come out like a pin could,anyway,glad you've managed it,thanks again,cheers.
Hi,proberly never been taken out and just tight, watch my other vid "first time take down" it shows you how to get it out, i work mine after first strip so they are easier in and out, cheers.
got it after a bit of tapping and wiggling thanks mate. appreciate the video. Starting the process of reconditioning one I just bought, full reblue, replace any worn bits and sand back and restain the stock. Fun wee project.
I have a new model .357 Rossi and tried to take it apart last night for the first time. Could not get the pin out. Do the new ones require something different? It moved to a point where it was flush with the screw hole but would come no further. Thanks...and great video.
Hi,to my knowledge they are the same, i have a 2 year old one (bought New) and its exactly the same, maybe your pin has a bur on it or something or maybe it is just tight as new Rossis can be tight to take apart, mine was but I have worked on the tight spots so its easier now, without having the rifle in front of me its hard to tell you what to do as I don't want to tell you to try something that might damage it----------- however----------- if you are sure that what you are doing is correct and there are no obvious obstructions I would tap a bit harder, but thats what I would do and I am not recommending you do that unless you are absolutely sure you are doing the right thing, sorry I can't help more PS make sure the lever is fully closed, if you don't have any joy maybe you could pm me with a photo, cheers.
Thanks for the reply. I started and stopped your video as I took off the stock, wired the spring, removed the small screw and tapped the pin until it was flush with the top of the screw hole. With the safety, should I make sure it is in the F position to seat the hammer fully closed? Would that help with positioning the bolt properly? Just an idea???
Yes,put safety to "fire" anyway as this helps for the take down, I just think its a tight pin,------- lever closed,--- bolt home----- safety off and see how you Go,i have another vid which is a first time take down of a new rifle and things are tight, not the pin though. You are definitely tapping it out the right way-from right to left,-pin exits on opposite side of receiver than loading gate and serated edge first to appear from pin hole ? Hope all goes okay, let me know, cheers.
Hi, I have never taken down a win 92 original so can't say for sure, I would be very surprised if it was exactly like for like, maybe someone else could say for sure, cheers.
Hello, Love your channel and videos with the R92. I have the 20 inch in 357 and all the video's I've watched about the tube spring don't really say how much to cut off. How many Inches or CM's did you remove? Feeding bullets in mine is a struggle and my thumb gets trashed. Cant wear gloves to load it cuz tit gets caught. Thank you.
Hi, I cut mine down so there was only about 5 inches out of the tube mag,if I were you just take off a couple of inches and try it.You need to soften the loading gate and just take off all the sharp edges so it's smooth to touch not sharp, glad you like the video, cheers.
Where's the video that the thumbnail for this one originated? I know that I've seen a detail disassembly video on the Rossi 92 before, but now can't seem to find it. Several disassembly videos but their all just basic field strip for cleaning affairs. I couple of years ago I picked up a '92 in .45 Colt, and then did a complete refinish on the wood and metal. I used a CZcams video to pick up some tips for removing and reassembling all of the internals of the receiver. Now, I've picked up a .357/.38 version and would like to do the same, but wanted to review the video again before starting too deeply into all the smaller bits... CZcams's search feature seems more intent on pushing nonrelevant "suggested" videos than actually helping you search for something specific, nowadays... Any help on where to find a FULL disassembly video would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,could try Brownells uk, other than that I am not sure, there is a place in Europe that sells parts, just google "Waffen Ferkinghoff",strange name I know but they do have a comprehensive parts list, not sure about them sending parts to uk though, failing that it may be worth just asking around, gun clubs can be a source of parts/info,cheers and good luck.
Hi,just seen this,you may have done it by now, if not, next time try hitting the stock on tighter with the palm of your hand before you try to pull it off, i know this sounds wrong but try it, it can work, cheers.
you answered me straight away on another video so it is all good. sadly I shipped mine away, we have a pesky limit in the number of rifles we can have on a hunting license and I had to part with the rossi, but a fun rifle
If you have bought one all you really need to do is cut down the mag spring a bit and replace the ejector spring with a softer after market one, just doing those 2 things will transform the rifle, cheers.
Hey bud after removing the first grub screw and pin, i tried moving the lever and block assembly and it won't come out. Perhaps i missed a step not too sure but then all of a sudden the ejector assembly(minus the collar and spring) shot out of the action. I messed up...lol any suggestions.
+Marqjosh Hi,hope you have got the collar and spring ? Just remove lower tang and trigger assembly and hammer assembly and then try to remove lever and locking bolts or undo the locking bolt screw and lock screw remove the large pin and then the locking bolts.There are different ways of doing things,the way i do it is just my preference and tolerances can be different rifle to rifle.Whatever you do make sure you capture the main spring first with the wire and then strip down and reassemble,good luck,cheers.
Yes I have the collar and spring as well. Main spring captured. I attempted removing the lower tang screw and it seems to only come out half way. The locking bolt screw seems to be impossible to get undone. Greatly appreciate the response I'll let you know how it works out. Ah my first lever gun, this is a tricky one!
+Marqjosh Thats good you've got the spring and collar,i thought perhaps you had lost them,stick with it they are fun guns and they definitely grow on ya,especially if you like tinkering :} cheers.
+My Rossi Rifle luckily i found them when they fell out. i just removed the large lower tang screw however my trigger assembly won't come out, I'm assuming that is because the lever has not yet been removed?
Wow! What a GREAT instructional video. Very comprehensive. I have a Rossi R92 I purchased recently but was hesitant to disassemble the action. Now I’m not. Thank you VERY much!

Glad it helped,thanks for the comment and stay safe out there,cheers.
Thanks for the time and effort you put into making this video, so clear and instructive.
And thanks for the kind comment, cheers.
first of all, thank you for the video!! first time ever taking my Rossi down first time ever taking a lever down so it was a real adventure I'm not ashamed to say it took me 5 hours from start to finish I must have watched the video a 100 times or parts of it to understand the skills correctly if I would not have had your tutelage I would have given up but I knew if I just had to keep my cool I traded an AK for my Rossi 92 and never looked back next is my old Sears&Roebuck Model 54 AKA Winchester model 94 30/30 had that one longer but have been afraid to tackle the lever break down process then my old Remington 742

Many thanks for this video. I too have one of the older Rossi 92's, without that bloody safety on the bolt, although mine is in .44WCF. I bought it used and although it was very clean then and I have done my best to keep it that way, there will certainly come a day when I will need to take it apart for a thorough cleaning. I now have a go-to video guide. Cheers.
Thanks for that,cheers.
Excellent demonstration. I'm taking delivery of a Rossi M92 this week and the shipper tells me it's packed in cosmoline so I'll need this.
+Rich Weatherly Thanks for that,cheers.
Thanks for the video. I never cleaned mine this good since I got it. Had a few problems with the spring and putting the trigger back in but all is well now.
+Jeff Cossey Your welcome,glad it helped Jeff,cheers.
Thank you for your time in making this and great detail; also, I liked the old effect you used. Your method worked perfect for me.
Thats great, not many people like that effect---------it annoys some people :} glad you like it though, cheers.
Agree; added a nice touch.
Mate, you were a life saver with this!
Appreciate the effort you put in to make the video!
Your welcome, thanks for that, cheers.
Brilliant video mate. Thanks for making this process so much easier 👍🏼
Welcome, cheers.
Didn't notice the tint till you mentioned it. Good eye.
I would add a small warning - I inserted a "spent" shell into a friends rifle once and because it had not been resized yet, it stuck and we could not extract it.
We even tried a full length dowell and a nylon hammer and it still would not budge. Had to take it to a smith for extraction. Great vid, thank you for it. //ji
Thank you very much for awesome, very detailed and clear instructions. With your help i have cleaned my rifle. Thanks again! Good luck!
Thats great,thanks-----always good to clean your rifle,cheers.
Excellent video very helpful
I somehow volunteered to repair the Shooting Club Rossi 92. The rifle had no ejector so by some miracle I
was able to purchase a ejector ,spring and collar .With having sever arthritis my hands I was unable to
insert the ejector has you described. I ended up inserting a spent case in the breach . then inserting the
assembled Ejector in the breach block sliding it up to the bullet . I made a drift out of 1 1/4 x 1 1/2 timber
with a short projection on the end of the timber which fit in the slot end of the breach block . I put the rifle
with the barrel on some wood ,inserted the timber drift into the breach block ,pressed down making sure
the ejector was located properly and gave the drift a sharp tap .It worked perfectly on the second time
as the spring bar which retains the collar was slightly bent up and when inserting the pin it dislodged the extractor. when trying it your way I was wishing you were here to do it . Thanks for making this video
Thats great, thanks for the kind comment John,glad you managed it and by the sounds of things you've come up with another way of doing things ! I too suffer from Arthritis but not in the hands, knees for me, how does that saying go ---"Arthritis is the mother of all invention" :} cheers John.
PS, forgot to say that my ejector spring has been changed for a lighter one which makes my way easier to do, if your club gun has the original spring it can be harder to do ! If you think about changing springs and only do one, do the ejector spring, just changing this one spring will make it much easier to re assemble and not launch your spent rounds into the next county !! cheers again John,Trey.
Great video, really helped my first-time disassemble.
Sir...many thanks!!!Your video helped me a lot...I'm from Rossi 92 land...I hadn't seen any brazilian...explained so well as you disassembly and assembly. Best wishes!!!
Thats great, thanks for the comment, cheers.
Thank you! I bought my Rossi 92 in 1999 and have yet to do a complete disassembly. After watching this I'm ready!
Thanks for that Jeffrey,please do be careful though it can be a fiddle to get them back together,my other vid "first time strip down" will give a better insight especially if its a new rifle, they can be very tight,cheers anyway and thanks for looking in.
Thanks again, I completed the strip/reassembly last night. It is an older rifle, I bought it back in 1999, so it has seen some action. Like you mentioned, there was a lot of fiddling. My biggest surprise was when my wire wasn't "stout" enough and my spring shot off a few minutes later. :) Luckily I found it and got it back on ok. The rest went pretty smoothly.
You can't beat a stout piece of wire :} excellent.
Great video and thanks for taking the time to do all that work! I didn't see you take off the forend and what I'm trying to find is a place to buy a longer front band screw. I have an original Winchester M-92 and the band screw goes right in. The Rossi screw is extremely difficult to get started and I haven't found a place on the Internet that sells a longer replacement screw or tells how to replace it. Getting parts from Rossi is impossible as near as I can find out. I called them and the guy said he'd back order one or email me when they had any. This was 2-years ago and again, a year ago. I want to replace the wood on mine but this screw is the fly in the ointment. Once again, thanks for the video!
Hi,thanks for the comments, there is a German company that does all Rossi parts, not sure about the shipping but you could enquire, its " waffen firkinghoff" just type that in and find the site then click the English button top left, good luck, cheers.
Thank you for doing this instruction video. I would have been lost without it! Best wishes.
Glad it helped, cheers.
Great Video! It helped me in disassembly and reassembling my Rossi 92 when installing a Palo Verde Gunworks spring kit to smoothen the action.
Thats great, glad it helped, spring kits do make a big difference with theses guns, cheers.
Proper job mate. Thanks from Oz
Welcome, Merry Xmas.
@@myrossirifle Merry Christmas to you and yours, love my little Rossi.
Thank you MyRossiRifle, from the US of A. This is not my first rifle but my first level action, couldn’t have got this far without your instruction.
Your welcome, glad you found it useful, cheers from UK.
This is interesting, over here in the states we hear you guys have only have access to breech loading long arms. So what magazine capacity are you allotted over in the UK?
@@vthompson1987 Hi, people think we are restricted in the UK but its actually not that bad, we can have any calibre any Mag size and any rifle the only restriction is we cannot have full or semi auto except for .22lr in which case it can be semi auto (Ruger 10/22) and many others, centre fire rifles that are semi auto have to be converted to straight pull ie; I can have an AK47 but it has to be straight pull, loads 1 round at a time but no restriction on mag size, I could have an AR15 in any style as long as its straight pull, so as you can see its really quite good, to own rifles in the uk you have to have "good reason" ie you cant just decide you want a gun and go and get one, there is a long process and you have to belong to a government approved club or for Hunting, cheers.
Excellent video! Very helpful.
Thanks
Very good reassembling demo .Thanks
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for this video. Tried field stripping mine and thought I broke the damn thing. Mine is in .44 mag and it was exactly like you did.
glad it helped, cheers.
Thank you so much ! Without your great movie I would be imposible for me to clean my Puma (1st time ... after a few years of using ;) )
Thats great,cheers.
Interesting video, great info; thanks for posting!
THE BEST! MUITO BOM ESSE TUTORIAL!!!! VALEU MESMO PELO VÍDEO!!
Brilliant! clear and easy to follow. Many Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much!
🇨🇿
Your welcome, cheers.
Brilliant series of vids....very informative thks
Thank you for making these instructional videos.
I've worked on many of firearms throughout the years (mainly semi-automatic pistols, revolvers, and pump action shotguns), but it's only been the past few years that I've worked on any lever action rifles.
You've managed to make the Model 1892 Winchester (and it's clones) an easy firearm to disassemble/reassemble.
I've come to like the Model 1892 Winchester best of all for 2 reasons.
First; it's a pistol caliber rifle/carbine that's relatively cheap to shoot (especially .38 special and .357 magnum).
Second; its strength - it's more than strong enough for any cartridge that will fit the action (it's twin locking lugs are actually stronger than the single rear locking lug used in the rifle calibers Model 1894 Winchester).
I have a Rossi in .357 mag/.38 special and a Winchester in .44 magnum and love them both.
Either an 1873 Uberti or Winchester (Miroku) Short Rifle is next on my "bucket" list, with a 336 Marlin right behind.
From the Mid-Western USA, I want to thank you!
I appreciate the hard work you put in making your videos.
Thanks for the kind comments, I bought my first Rossi 357 in New Zealand and it was a sorry looking rifle but I just loved the look of it, got it home and thought I will google taking it apart etc and found nothing much of any use,i went ahead and took it apart and was glad I did, it was so full of dirt and twigs and leaves, literally leaves under the trigger!! I don't think it had ever been apart or cleaned which is what gave me the thought of putting up some videos of my own so people could take them apart to clean, glad you found them useful, thanks again for the comments and cheers from Wiltshire in southern England.
@@treywall3683, you are very welcome. I feel I didn't praise you enough in my first comment.
Your series of R92 videos made tearing down and working on a Rossi extremely simple.
You explained (and showed) each step you made along the way and how certain parts interacted with one another and why a certain sequence/order needed to be followed.
Since a Rossi R92 is so closely related (virtual clone) to a Winchester Model 1892, your series of R92 videos are also the best Winchester 1892 videos on CZcams too.
I find the Internet and CZcams to be an incredible tool/database.
It still boggles my mind that I'm communicating with someone half way around the planet just as easy (in some ways easier) as if I called them on my cellphone.
The Internet/Social Media has led to nefarious individuals looking for like minded people to plan/commit horrendous acts, but it's also opened a wealth of knowledge for common everyday people to tap into that was impossible to even imagine just 20+ years ago.
It's incredible to think that virtually every published peice of information in the history of mankind is at my fingertips (and can be translated into my language too!).
Yep your right, the internet/communication is amazing,i remember when I was a nipper having to walk miles to find a Phone box and then only having 1 x 2p in my pocket and then hoping the Phone was working !! Thanks again.
Very good video! Thanks so much for posting! You saved me a trip to a gunsmith!
+smiditch Your welcome,thanks for looking in,cheers.
What a great vid, thanks!
Best video there is with great detail that helped me alot, but I think your should have made the order of disassembly the same as reassembly, that is :
capture mainspring
remove:
lower tang
trigger assembly
then grub screw and pin
lever and locking bolts
When starting as you do, capturing main spring and then moving on to removing grub screw and pin, lever and locking bolts, the lever and locking bolts are stuck in my gun....
Sure has to do with tolerances in each gun, but be advised, some just might get into trouble here.
Excellent video, thank you
welcome.
Thank you mate! Excellent guidance. Just bought one (arriving in 2 weeks time).
Nice one, thanks for that. cheers.
Need you help, mate! Shot the initial 70 rds, and everything worked perfectly.
Now attempting disassembly for cleaning and the lever assembly won’t come out ... could I impose on you for guidance?
Ok, crisis averted; had to remove the tang bolt such that the lever would come out. I note that in your disassembly, the lever comes out first, before the tang and hammer, but in reassembly, the lever goes in before the tang/hammer. Reassembly went well. I think when I disassemble again, I’ll remove tension from the hammer with the wire, pull the tang screw and remove the tang and hammer before removing the lever. Yours looks a little more worn in...
didnt like the "old west " style tint for the whole video. thanks tho
Click the high def link at beginning of vid to take you to one without the aged feel,cheers.
I have an 1892 rifle (original) and have to try and replace that goofy little ejector collar spring, it's not easy! I had to order one after my first disappeared to parts unknown.
Excellent video for proper cleaning...Thanks !
Your welcome, cheers.
Very helpful vid. Excellent camera work! All details in plain view and easy to follow. You done a super job man. Thank you!
+MsPredatorHunter Thanks for that,glad you like it,cheers.
thanks for this very informative vid,
Welcome.
Excellent video, tnx. Looking to get a Rossi M92... 👍
I have a newer one, the machining marks and overall fit and finish is absolutely horrible compared to the one you have here. I used your video to strip mine down and spent over 6 hours polishing and smoothing the bolt, hammer, trigger, lugs, lever and especially the loading port (that thing was a finger slicer!). It was interesting to read you like the quality of the newer ones. Great vid, thank you!! Cheers :)
I think it must still be a bit of a lucky dip with regards quality,however,i was able to inspect mine at the shop before parting with cash and yep the quality of my new one was better than the older second hand ones I've had.Your right,those edges are like razor blades,i used mine in the kitchen for a while to chop veg :} Glad you like the vid,cheers.
great video, thank you1
Excellent job on instruction!!!!
Very good. Can perform myself now.
Well done.
I use a bore snake , spray down the chamber bolt area and scrub, and it's good to go...
Great vid thanks
Great instructional video thanks so much!
your welcome, cheers.
I couldn't have taken my new rossi apart and put it back together w/o this video so thank you. It was still extremely challenging. Probably the worst weapon I have ever torn into. I did some upgrades from Steve's Gunz and I tried to smooth all the moving parts. Somehow I managed to make the action stiffer than it was. It's a fun shooter and I really want to like it but the action and assembly/take down are less than desirable.
Hi, sorry to hear your action is stiffer after reassembly but it may be 1 of 2 things, remove the bolt pin stop screw and try the action without it, does it loosen up ? if it does it means the screw is too long from factory. If it is still stiff make sure the bolt pin is all the way in FLUSH with the side of the bolt, if this pin protrudes even the slightest it can jam up the action, cheers.
@@myrossirifle thanks I'll check it out just as soon as I get brave enough to tear into it again.
@@myrossirifle it took a minute to realize I didn't need to disassemble the entire thing to do what you said. You sir definitely know your way around this rifle. I didn't quite have the pin in deep enough. Now I have the smooth action I was hoping for.
Thanks again
@@nascarFergie Thats great, glad you got it sorted , cheers.
I bought one of these today, it's like new condition fired 5 shots through it. Mine though says puma m92 imported by lsi Alexandria Virginia. Chambered in 357/38 pistol caliber. Not really sure what I got but I fell in love with it soon as I saw it. I think it's the same Rossi made in Brazil firearm though.
@@Banjoandguns Awesome thanks.
I think they have a bunch of different names in different markets. I bought mine a few months ago in Germany (new, from a store) as a "M 67" but the manual says "Puma" and the "Model 67" just stands for the .357 mag chambering, according to the manual. In the US they are sold as "R92" it seems because they are based on Model '92 Winchester.
However, the manual in my box looks like it was designed and printed in the 1980ies (two-color print with pre-photoshop, analog graphics and all). So I don't think they ever changed the design.
@@maximilianmustermann5763 Awesome. One of my favorite rifles to shoot though sadly since I bought mine there has been no ammo available anywhere other than 38 special so I've had limited shooting.
Nice to see the older R92s. Just bought one in stainless steel and I was so disappointed in the number of non-stainless parts. My loading gate, bullet loading feed ramp, bolt tangs, ejector rod and new safety switch were all blued parts! Very unhappy. I have called Rossi to se if they can get me at least the loading gate in stainless. It just doesn't look good with the blued gate against the stainless steel frame!
Hi,i took my loading gate out (newer rifle) and polished the blueing off and as yet it is still fine and looks good, cheers.
This is just what I needed - got my 92 a few weeks back and only had a couple of occasions to shoot with it since, but wanted to give it a clean and check out his it all works. Your vid has turned up in my feed suggestions at the perfect time, very informative and a great help. Many thanks! Don't suppose you fancy doing a similar one for the 45-70 Govt Rio Grande?
Thats great,glad it helps,i don't own a 45/70 Rio Grande but if you would like to send me yours---------:}
Excellent tutorial!
Thanks for that, glad you liked it, cheers.
Can anybody tell me if the front forearm stock is interchangeable with both the 20inch barrel and 16inch?
this is a great video. Thank you.
Thanks for that ,cheers.
Great video. I was really hoping you would go into the firing pin assembly. I just got my first 92 SRC and the striker floats. If it's all the way forward it won't fire. Think it is missing a spring
Must be something else going on as the firing pin is not spring loaded, cheers.
Great instructional video for the technicalities. Please just reflect on the Ok’s the repetition is the only difficulty. OK
Great tutorial
Thanks partner
welcome, cheers.
Great video man thanks!😀👍
+Trol Blender Your welcome,glad you like it,cheers.
+My Rossi Rifle yes sir I will have to strip down my ranch hand soon, this video will be a good reference for me!
Thanks! Well done.
Very good video
Would you please Denonstrate to me How to adjust the Left and rRght cartridge guides to get the Cartridge to better line up the Cartridge to the chamber ?
Also Demonstrate How to adjust the Cartridge lifter to raise the rear of the cartridge to lessen the feed angle for better feeding of the cartridge into the chamber ?
Thank you very much
Thank you very much, sir! Thumbs up
Thanks for the Thumbs up, cheers.
I know you added the film reel style effect on purpose, but it makes some parts a little unclear. I am glad you posted the other videos as well.
Thanks for that,i was trying to be clever and it didn't work so well and couldn't reverse the effect :{ cheers and glad you like the other one.
Yeah it'll help out a lot. I have the .44 magnum version and I just ordered some Lee dies today. I didn't realize how expensive the bigger rounds are.
Yep,bit more than 38/357 but you will be fine reloading,lot cheaper,some people argue its not cheaper to reload because then you shoot more ! I say yes but i am shooting more because its cheaper ! go figure,cheers.
Very clear. Thank you.
Your welcome, glad you like it, cheers.
Thank you for making the video. I am looking for an ejector pin for a model M92. Any idea where I can locate one? I'm in South Africa.
Try waffen ferkinhof, they are in Europe though, good luck.
Is the firing pin free floating? I have a rossi 92 and I was wondering if mine was operating correctly.
Yes it is,you can adjust the strength of the hammer strike by replacing the main spring,don't go too light though or you may get light strikes on the primer,you should hear the pin rattle backwards and forwards if you shake the bolt,if the firing pin is tight you need to have someone look at it or give it a good clean until it rattles.
Great video mate..cheers.
+wayne daley thanks for that Wayne,cheers and thanks for the sub.
+My Rossi Rifle ...my only problem was I used too small a piece of wire..small in diameter..the spring folded over the wire ..and I had to push the spring back to get wire out..anyway great video and greetings from Vancouver island..
+wayne daley Yep it needs to be a stout piece of wire those large paper clips work for me,the reason i use wire is so that i can bend it over so that it can't come out like a pin could,anyway,glad you've managed it,thanks again,cheers.
I noticed you don't have the thumb safety. Did it come that way or did you get a new breechbolt for it?
Hi,it came like it,its an older model the new one has the safety,cheers.
my lower tang will not budge. any reason for this or just siezed in there because previous owner never took it apart?
Hi,proberly never been taken out and just tight, watch my other vid "first time take down" it shows you how to get it out, i work mine after first strip so they are easier in and out, cheers.
got it after a bit of tapping and wiggling thanks mate. appreciate the video. Starting the process of reconditioning one I just bought, full reblue, replace any worn bits and sand back and restain the stock. Fun wee project.
I have a new model .357 Rossi and tried to take it apart last night for the first time. Could not get the pin out. Do the new ones require something different? It moved to a point where it was flush with the screw hole but would come no further. Thanks...and great video.
Hi,to my knowledge they are the same, i have a 2 year old one (bought New) and its exactly the same, maybe your pin has a bur on it or something or maybe it is just tight as new Rossis can be tight to take apart, mine was but I have worked on the tight spots so its easier now, without having the rifle in front of me its hard to tell you what to do as I don't want to tell you to try something that might damage it----------- however----------- if you are sure that what you are doing is correct and there are no obvious obstructions I would tap a bit harder, but thats what I would do and I am not recommending you do that unless you are absolutely sure you are doing the right thing, sorry I can't help more PS make sure the lever is fully closed, if you don't have any joy maybe you could pm me with a photo, cheers.
Thanks for the reply. I started and stopped your video as I took off the stock, wired the spring, removed the small screw and tapped the pin until it was flush with the top of the screw hole. With the safety, should I make sure it is in the F position to seat the hammer fully closed? Would that help with positioning the bolt properly? Just an idea???
Yes,put safety to "fire" anyway as this helps for the take down, I just think its a tight pin,------- lever closed,--- bolt home----- safety off and see how you Go,i have another vid which is a first time take down of a new rifle and things are tight, not the pin though. You are definitely tapping it out the right way-from right to left,-pin exits on opposite side of receiver than loading gate and serated edge first to appear from pin hole ? Hope all goes okay, let me know, cheers.
Does this video work for an original Winchester 1892 model?
Hi, I have never taken down a win 92 original so can't say for sure, I would be very surprised if it was exactly like for like, maybe someone else could say for sure, cheers.
thank you so very much !!
cheers !
the best!!!
Hello,
Love your channel and videos with the R92. I have the 20 inch in 357 and all the video's I've watched about the tube spring don't really say how much to cut off. How many Inches or CM's did you remove? Feeding bullets in mine is a struggle and my thumb gets trashed. Cant wear gloves to load it cuz tit gets caught. Thank you.
Hi, I cut mine down so there was only about 5 inches out of the tube mag,if I were you just take off a couple of inches and try it.You need to soften the loading gate and just take off all the sharp edges so it's smooth to touch not sharp, glad you like the video, cheers.
@@myrossirifle Thank you!
Great video, thanks for posting.
Your welcome,cheers.
Where's the video that the thumbnail for this one originated? I know that I've seen a detail disassembly video on the Rossi 92 before, but now can't seem to find it. Several disassembly videos but their all just basic field strip for cleaning affairs. I couple of years ago I picked up a '92 in .45 Colt, and then did a complete refinish on the wood and metal. I used a CZcams video to pick up some tips for removing and reassembling all of the internals of the receiver. Now, I've picked up a .357/.38 version and would like to do the same, but wanted to review the video again before starting too deeply into all the smaller bits... CZcams's search feature seems more intent on pushing nonrelevant "suggested" videos than actually helping you search for something specific, nowadays... Any help on where to find a FULL disassembly video would be greatly appreciated.
Go to my channel "my Rossi Rifle" on you tube and look through the vids, cheers.
Hi whats the best place to got spare parts for Rossi M92 in the UK
Hi,could try Brownells uk, other than that I am not sure, there is a place in Europe that sells parts, just google "Waffen Ferkinghoff",strange name I know but they do have a comprehensive parts list, not sure about them sending parts to uk though, failing that it may be worth just asking around, gun clubs can be a source of parts/info,cheers and good luck.
Thank you i will let you know how i get on
My stock is stuck like hell
any tips? I remove the screw but the stock doesn't budge at all!
Hi,just seen this,you may have done it by now, if not, next time try hitting the stock on tighter with the palm of your hand before you try to pull it off, i know this sounds wrong but try it, it can work, cheers.
you answered me straight away on another video so it is all good.
sadly I shipped mine away, we have a pesky limit in the number of rifles we can have on a hunting license and I had to part with the rossi, but a fun rifle
Cool thanks
welcome
very good saved me
Thanks for that, glad it helped,cheers.
MUITO BOM, BEM DETALHADO. GOOD.
+kennedy lopes da silva Lopes gracas,feliz que voce gosta,aplausos.
+kennedy lopes da silva Lopes Gracias :}
did you polish any of the internals on this rifle or smooth over the edges??
Yep,took all sharp edges off and polished lifter/carrier .
@@myrossirifle lifters? The two blocks attached to the lever?
Lifter carries the round up from magazine when you close lever.
@@myrossirifle thanks for the info
If you have bought one all you really need to do is cut down the mag spring a bit and replace the ejector spring with a softer after market one, just doing those 2 things will transform the rifle, cheers.
gostei, foi muito util.
Obrigado Senhor :}
Hey bud after removing the first grub screw and pin, i tried moving the lever and block assembly and it won't come out. Perhaps i missed a step not too sure but then all of a sudden the ejector assembly(minus the collar and spring) shot out of the action. I messed up...lol any suggestions.
+Marqjosh Hi,hope you have got the collar and spring ? Just remove lower tang and trigger assembly and hammer assembly and then try to remove lever and locking bolts or undo the locking bolt screw and lock screw remove the large pin and then the locking bolts.There are different ways of doing things,the way i do it is just my preference and tolerances can be different rifle to rifle.Whatever you do make sure you capture the main spring first with the wire and then strip down and reassemble,good luck,cheers.
Yes I have the collar and spring as well. Main spring captured. I attempted removing the lower tang screw and it seems to only come out half way. The locking bolt screw seems to be impossible to get undone. Greatly appreciate the response I'll let you know how it works out. Ah my first lever gun, this is a tricky one!
+Marqjosh Thats good you've got the spring and collar,i thought perhaps you had lost them,stick with it they are fun guns and they definitely grow on ya,especially if you like tinkering :} cheers.
+My Rossi Rifle luckily i found them when they fell out. i just removed the large lower tang screw however my trigger assembly won't come out, I'm assuming that is because the lever has not yet been removed?
My hammer won't drop all the way down either, man perhaps i should just bring it to a smith. =/
