Bought a Rossi 92 & immediately sent it to Nate Kiowa Jones , the darling smith of levergun sites for a routine tune job.

Estimated 6 month turn around; paid up front.

Took 49 weeks & three e-mails to get it back. Guy stamped his intitals on outside of frame, engraved date in same place, kept my factory sights (had new front sights installed).

Think twice about using his services.

I'm on a couple of levergun sites and have never heard of him.Levergun action jobs are pretty simple if you follow some of the info on the web.Maybe next time try Wildwest or Grizzly Customs,they are both top notch.

Gotta admit it's smoother. Absoutely will not eat Keith type bullets but that's not surprising for a levergun chambered for a pistol caliber.

Gonna work up a cartridge for it and then make 'em in 500 batches on my new Dillon.
