Looks like one of the earlier ones, I like those more than the newer ones. The earlier ones are almost the exact same as the original Winchesters which I like more so than the current receivers.
Would I be right in assuming that the manufacturer uses CNC machines to make the parts in large numbers and low-skilled labor to load the CNC machines and assemble the parts with no finishing?
Are you asking why I out the spring kit in? I am using it for cowboy shooting competition and therefore need lighter springs for quicker action and ease of use
The springs in Rossi guns are fine, they are just optimized for using the gun as a farm-tool. With those original springs, the thing will be working fine after 20 years of abuse with no cleaning. It is very functional with the original springs, it's just that you don't need that immense spring-power for range use and competition - and you'll be faster with lighter springs.
@NitrisbotThere's a couple of people here in America that make the saddle rings, super easy to install. One of them is Beartooth Mercantile. Maybe contact them and see if they ship outside of the US? I don't see a saddle ring being an ITAR item. Best of luck
@@davidwatson2399 The springs in the Rossi R92 are way too strong for normal use. The ejector spring shoots empty cases out of the gun like bullets. I guess they make them this strong so the gun will always be working as a farm-tool in rough conditions, even after 20 years of use and abuse. But for normal range use, you can use way lighter springs and make the whole loading and cycling process faster and easier. Also you'll be able to find your brass more easily because it won't fly 20 yards.
@@barbarianarms Interesting... Rust marks indicate there was an old crack that rusted. I got my Rossi 92 this month. New from the store. I mean no-previous-owners new... According to papers it was imported in Russia in 2014. It was lying in the store for 6 years. That is how Rossi 92 popular in Russia ;)
@@barbarianarms from Canada I just got my Rossi r92 16" in 357 a couple of days ago and the first thing I noticed out of the box is that very screw has been over tightened (screw slot damaged) I will be stripping it in the near future and will give that screw a good look Thanks
The spring kit really loosens up the action. It’s a night and day difference. It was so loose I had to double check my assembly to make sure I didn’t screw it up.
Looks like you rounded the fore end.
Great video. With Rossi 92 its all in the springs.
What's for dinner, I'm starving. One of my favorite little rifle/carbine is my stainless Rossi M92, with a 16' barrel. Good video.
Interesting, she has the bump in the main case like the original 92. Mine is strait.
What was the teeny tiny spring for?

What ever happened to the small spring? Did you show us a complete upgrade ?
Was it the carrier spring?
Nice video but really - down the “rabbit hole” sounds like you got that one from a master gunsmith yeah? Lol
100%, its a piss take. Aussies are like that.

Why it is necessary to fix or upgrade on brand new guns, they don’t make guns like before.Metallurgy improved but workman ship decline.

Hi Barbarian Arms. I'm also in Australia mate. Where did you get the spring kit from please? Cheers. John
Brownells Australia can get them but you pay more than 29.95US
Try mad dog guns and gear
Kisses Barbarian! Mwah! Mwah! Mmmmmwah!
Carrier spring???
HI Barbarian what is the name of the ring sling attachment you have mounted on the side.. Where can I chase something like that up in Australia?
The saddle ring on the left side? It's an original part at time of manufacture.
Are you looking to put ine on an existing lever rifle?
@@barbarianarms I was wondering if it could be added. Ill have a rossi 92 soon and just looking at options for sling mounts.
There are some kits you can buy online. They mount to the mag tube and into the stock.
Ive never used them though....

What was wrong with the springs?
Sorry for the delayed reply.
I swapped the springs out for lighter ones. Makes it easier for Cowboy Shooting :)
@@barbarianarms
Ok
I have 3 model 92's none have needed springs.
@old rabidus
🤔
And when you get a sticky case, you leave it in the chamber.
@old rabidus
I hunt with mine, tilt and catch the brass, rarely loose any, dumping them at my feet would be a sure way to loose the brass.

How in a name of Hephaestus you managed to broke this screw???
Previous owner must have stuffed with it. Where it broke there were small rust marks in the break. Very strange but all good now! :)
