Was roaming around one of them big box stores today (actually I needed something for a task at work, figured they would have it, and can't go in and out without a stroll down the gun aisles - co worker outside waiting in the van with ... ah ... uhm ... client wondering why a five minute run takes 15). You know the kind of place ... lots of stuff, and lots of guys in orange hunting vests, but very little knowledge of what they stock.
In the used gun section I found a lever action rifle with a tag identifying it as a Rossi Puma (LS or LA I think). It was chambered in .357 mag/.38 spl. Blued octagon barrel, brass receiver, and wood furniture stained black. The only markings on the gun itself was the caliber stamped in the barrel. I imagine the serial number is under the lever, but it had enough wire ties and locks to hold King Kong in his cage.
Anyone know anything about this? I've done a search (not real in depth, cause I've only been home an hour) and can't find anything like it at Rossi.
Just curious.
