I've got an older one and it's a great shooter. I also had an EMF in .45 Colt for awhile. Imported by EMF, but made in Brazil by Rossi/Braztech. They are good guns, a little rough from the start, but will slick up with use and there are several cowboy gunsmiths around that can slick up the 1892 action. Mine is scary accurate and with proper handloads can nearly equal .30-30 ballistics with a 195gr .357 bullet.

Here are some bragging pics for you:

And some lighter, fun loads

I had one in .357. and was well pleased with it. bought it specifically for a boar hunt at Nugents place up in michigan. I had just sold off a large portion of my collection to buy my thompson, and had a bay one the way, when the oppurtunity for the hunt came up. After talking to the guides, I picked it up based on its price, and quick avaliabilty. sighted it in at 75 yards and was able to keep groups at about an inch. took a boar at approx. 60 yards, one shot, never took another step. sold the gun after the hunt because my son was due in a few weeks. I will get another one someday.
