Who makes the forend grip?
Its a Magpul, i think the call it a "hand stop kit" you can also get them matching rail cover peices as well
@@pyrate_nz Thank you
I got one in 44 Mag a while back, my favourite upgrade to date is swapping out the plastic buttstock with a Boyds one with the black textured paint finish.
Thanks for the tip. Im definatly going to look into that
You got pictures of the swap?
@@bobcamacho5897 YT hates firearms related links, but if you use a serch engine to find the boyds website the thay have a selector up top, just find Rossi under "brand" then 92 under "model".
Can you do a wood stock for this ?
@@cheyneperry2036 the boyds is a wood stock
Good vid man. I just picked up a Marlin Dark in 45-70. I’m planning similar additions 👍
Nice 👍
Looks great awesome 44 mag has some punch
Thanks for sharing Cheers
thanks for your support
I just picked up the 357, tempted to get the dremel out on the loading edges. Subsonics with the suppressor are awesome
Nice. I had the same thought with the loading port.
I got the 357 version as well. It is awesome shooting 38 suppressed:)
I just got a R92 Triple black and my barrel is canted to the left at about the 11:58-11:59 clocking. It’s so slight but it is off a bit. I emailed Rossi USA this past Friday to see what they have to say. Also emailed the vendor I purchased it from. We shall see.
that dosent sound good. definatly best to get it swapped out
I just got my citadel in 44 back I watch all your videos lol are great thank you!!! great your setup I'm in the process of copying it lol tell me can you find the clips for the cable that you attach to the picatiny please
pretty sure the were LaRue Tactical. Have fun with the build
Nice to see a kiwi doing a review on one of these.
Next purchase for me.
Subbed.
Thanks for the sub!
Did you get the 44 or 357 , and what do you think
the title of the video
Just saw this while looking for a howa 375 ruger. I think I will buy this instead.
Great review- probably my next purchase in 357mag, have a vector 1-25-4.5x26 on a shotgun, very good scope for the price.
Thanks. the vector stuff is very good for the price. So issues so far with recoil or the abuse I have given it.
@@pyrate_nzwhere can I get the front grip? I have a Henry model X 45-70 all tact out. I come to the conclusion I need a front grip and I really don’t want to use the pistol grip I had for the good old days in the army lol.
I have this same set up in 44 mag I love it! I am wondering if the Sig Juliet will fit on it i am only worryied about the eye relief being too far forward
it would fit, but yes i think the eye relief would be an issue, the emount hight might also be a problem
I have the LevTac - 92 chambered and the 454 Casull and want to state clearly that the 454 Casull chambering will not work with the 45 Long Colt.
@DLC 308 can you please explain further. 45c is the parent case of 454. Is it something to do with cycling?
@@pyrate_nz - I need to clarify my first comment. The 45 LC can be shot from the 454. However, it will not cycle/feed correctly. The 45 LC cartridge will not completely come out of the mag tube and enter fully onto the feed ramp when the lever is pulled. I believe the overall cartridge length of the round is more critical in functioning of the rifle when it is in the 45 caliber chambering. My brother has the LevTac - 92 in 44 Magnum and he doesn't have this problem when shooting 44 Special from it.
Can you make a disassembly and reassembly video plz! I can't find one and I just wanna get some of the gunk and carbon out of the inside. Great video!
Hi. Disassemble video is live th-cam.com/video/aDpIcSQ3Ibs/w-d-xo.html . Reassemble video coming soon.
@@pyrate_nz youre literally a god among men thank you!!!
@@shanebraunberg3757 thanks, glad it helped. Also have a video on smoothing the loading port and the trigger coming out soon as well.
Get rid of the front sling swivel stud, just give it a tap; replace it with an m lok one. Better to get rid of it now than fall out and fall off your shoulder while walking over the boulders
good advice, thanks
Great review. Waiting to shoot mine right now. You must have huge rabbits down there for a 44 Mag.
its called "instant lawn fertiliser". Also in my area we get a lot of wild pigs which we also class as pests
That's cool mate
I might buy one next week. I'll put a wood butt stock on it and change the lever loop to a regular sized one.
good choice!
I read that a muzzle break for a 9mm will work on a 357. I bought one for a 350 legend. It has a larger bore.
@@richdoherty64 it all depends on what the brake is bored out to. A 9mm bullet dia is 0.002 smaller. 350leg is 0.357 so there will be no problem with that.
Nice. Who does your ironing, are they regulation creases? 😉
old habbits
Looks like a decent gun....bet you will inspect every gun better before leaving the dealer now.
Sure will. I assumed the dealer would have checked it before shipping to my local dealer. But I guess not. Lesson learnt.
Friday Rifles are a real thing, too! As are Friday Guitars. Ask me how I know xD
Where can I get that front grip for my Henry model x
Its a Magpul, think they call it a hand stop kit
@@pyrate_nz thanks
Nice Bro
Thanks for sharing new Aussi viewer
Thanks and welcome
HI, I have one too. The front swivel holder just broke off!
That sucks. That's something I will have to test on mine. I'm not a fan of traditional slings so I don't tend to use them.
Hey mate, is that a torque wrench/key? And where can I grab one? it looks bloody useful!
just google 'fix it sticks, of check out my videos on the product th-cam.com/play/PL1DaalhTEyGDBCVF0DkybGvkvcnKCOoZ7.html
@@pyrate_nz That's amazing, cheers. They're a little pricey, but I've seen the long range folks pull these out when a scope starts acting a fool. You're a legend! Cheers!
As far as I know Citadel is made in the Philippines...
a lot of their products are, however the LevTac is made by CBC (aka Rossi) in brazil and they are stamped as such
Heya mate any idea where one could source a taller front sight to use the iron sights with suppressor? Im in nz
no so easy. you could try a local gunsmith. if no buffalo arms ship to NZ.
@pyrate_nz cheers mate. The reason I ask is I have been using a red dot but it appears I have an astigmatism. Red dot is super blurry at night. Have swapped it out for a holographic one which actually adjust to a lower brightness which has helped a bit.
I have the same problem but its not bad enough to bother me. and basicaly nonexistent with a holographic. may be time to buy some nods and IR designator
Would you happen to know what the screw length and thread pitch is for the screw that's located at the bottom of the hand guard?
sorry no. the screw was a random one i had lying arround and I trimmed it to lenght
Solid review, thank you - enjoyed it. Where did you get the chamber flag from?
Thanks for the support. I 3D Print them myself and have the tags made. I do sell them if your in NZ. Will look at doing international later this year when world shipping stabilises. The links are in the description
Very nice👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Seems the optic rail that it ships with is a problem in almost every single review I have watched or read. Shame as I would like to own one of these but not interested in the back and forth with the company to have it resolved.
Nice
thanks
Got one in 357 and it shoots high even with the rear sight in the lowest spot on the ramp. I have to drop the front bead to the bottom of the rear peep sight to get near the center of the target. It would be interesting to see how yours shoots with the iron sights.
What sort of ammo are you using and at what range are you trying to zero. mine was bang on from the factory @50yd with 240gr hollowpoints, that could be just luck. granted it is 44mag not 357
140gn 38 special and 158gn 357 . At 25m .38 about 6 inchs high and the 357 a bit higher ( rear sight at the lowest position with no more adjustment left). At 50m about 8 inches high. Might be on zero at 200m . The front sight seems tall enough - looks like I just got a dud.
@@chrisdugal3002 thats substantial. time for a red dot?
Yeah I've got the same shooting high situation with my .357.
Maybe have an incorrect front sight from a 44 installed or something?
Also had scope rail screw issue, one screw being cross threaded.
Oh thank God. You guys can own Lever guns down there...all is not lost...
Small mercy. But limited to 10 in the mag
Have you any footage of shooting the 44 mag
Very cool Cheers
Not really my thing, to do shooting videos. There a lots of other great channels that do that. Cheers
16.5 or 18” barrel?
16.5
Can ypu tell the brand of foregrip that is please? Thank you
Its a Magpul, check back in the comments the full descrition is in another comment, cheers
@@pyrate_nz thanks
Thank you for the review. I have the 357 mag version and its a shooter:)
I have been looking at the 44 and this is the first review on youtube of it.
Let me know how well it shoots and cycles both 44mag and special.
How is the accuracy at 50-100yards?
Hi David. Thanks for the support. Stay tuned for a follow up video, when I get the round count up. So far it's going great.
@@pyrate_nz glad to hear everything so far is ship shape with the gun.
So no issues cycling 44 special or magnum?
@@davidpowers2025 so far I've only tried 44mag. I can't find 44special any where. I may just have to resort to loading some.
@@pyrate_nz how well as it shooting with factory 44 mag?
The bore diameter and twist rate should be good.
Hi did you guys have a safety issue with your levtac? Mine is still able to fire with the safety on safe.
What’s the standard range you can shoot out to with that red dot and calibre?
I find 100m is no problem shooting a 66% IPSC, slow fire. If you want to shoot steel at speed 25 (or 50 for a challenge). It really depends on you eyes and your confidence/abillity. I would not hesitate to shoot a red deer at 100m with it, but thats me. im sure some people would push it further and some would want to be closer. The other consideration is knowing your ammo and bullet selection. Im currently loading the 240gr hornady XTP 44mag which is devastating on game.
Looking to buy one have u had any issues with it
only the ones if covered in the video. check out my final review here th-cam.com/video/OwGtc-Zw4tY/w-d-xo.html
Congratulations, great setup, looks beautiful! I really want to have one. But here in Brazil, the Lula government is disarmament, it is doing everything to disarm the population again. It's not easy. Please make this information available to everyone.
What did you use for the fore grip?
check the pinned comment for further details. Its made by #magpul
Barrel length?
16.5″
Are you sure the barrel threads aren’t 11/16x24?
It is 37/64x28. I have gauged it. Also I have since taped out the brake and fitted so im 100% sure.
It sure would make it easier to put in in the manual or even list it on their website. They only give you grief because their jealous. Its easier to go through life if you dont care what other people think.
Is the bore off center on yours ?
on the first rifle i rejected and sent back it was. current one is perfect
How's the optic holding up?
Its perfect. No issues what so even. Will be doing a full review in the coming weeks.
@@pyrate_nz I might go the leupold fixed magnification. But cheers for the content.
🇦🇺😎👍Rrrr me artie
