Re: you [ and I ] need one of these: volcanic from Uberti
Im very interested to see how they adapted it for use with brass cased ammunition. Im picturing some adaptation of the 1873 extraction and ejection system.

Re: The very tactical and global original 1892
If the model 94 is the quintessential deer rifle, the 1892 was the "assault rifle" of the early 20th century. A lot of the short barreled 92's were sent overseas for that reason.
The 20" carbine is a lighter, fast gun. The 16" Trapper I have is even handier.
