I have puma mod 92. the rossi one. Plans call for cutting the barrel to 16.25 inches, john wayne loop lever. eventually a new stock.
The question of the day is when ordering parts is the Rossi, and I suppose the rest of the clones, close enough that winchester mod 92 parts will fit. or how do I ask for them of the parts places????
winchester vs the others.

LSI sells the large loop levers for the LSI Puma made by Rossi. Contact them for other parts.

Re: winchester vs the others.
NJK will know for sure. He did this for me before the large-loops were commonly available. He is our resident Rossi 92 expert! ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: winchester vs the others.
I've seen NKJ's ads on http://www.auctionarms.com for these levers (just the part) in the past but don't see it now...as someone said, am sure he'll weigh in here. I actually took the large lever off of my trapper length Rossi and swapped it for the regular one, making a "Luke McCain" (appearance clone) out of my 20" regular carbine which had the regular lever. Re wood, I've heard you can make practically anything work, but Winchester (or Winchester inlet pattern) wood is said to be just different enough that it will take some extra fitting. http://www.precisiongunstocks.com sellls a set of Rossi-specific wood (walnut) to alleviate that issue. As they say, none of these pieces require no fitting, but that should make it less of a chore. I've thought of picking out my otherwise nicest functioning and (metal) finish Rossi and doing just that.

Mine is a WWG on my 92 and NKJ did the rifle and all the work.
