    They are the lever action rifles that used to be made and marketed by Rossi. I believe they are the same rifles marketed under the name Puma.

    Its just what Rossi used to call their Winchester copies. I didn't like them because of the cat head on the frame. They are really good rifles, used by many Cowboy Action shooters. I now have a Rossi 92 (copy of Win.92) in 38/357. It's a great little rifle, imported by Interarms, and no cat head.

    I might be wrong but I believe Legacy Sports is the Importer.
    Interarms used to import the Rossis.

    Same Rossi, different importers. Mine doesn't say "Puma", just Model 92 SRC. I've had mine several years and Interarms was the importer then. It may have even been another importer when they had that ugly "puma" head on the left side of the frame. Cowboy shooters shunned it for that reason, may be why they changed it. Anyway, thanks for the info. They are good shooting little rifles, and since I can't afford a real 92 Win., I can have the feel and look of one.

    Excellent lever gun in .454 Casull & .45 Long Colt. We like the smooth action
    and accuracy.

    Very well built guns, I do not care for the top mount safty though.... But they still work great.
