I like my Rossi Pumba but the open sights are crap plastic, I think I can get decent replacements but not cheap I think?
Baikal, it will work properly, and its Russian!
And the Baikal can be had in some cool calibers on special order like 9.3x64

45-70 govt
+1 for the Russian
Takes apart, fits into a daypack. Built like a brick shithouse. Good accuracy.
Only thing I can fault is the trigger, pretty agricultural.
Always wanted a 45-70. Not even sure why:D
Rossi can shoot pretty accurately, if they function that is.
Workmanship is Poos.
I would not recommend unless you like to tinker.
their single shot rifles are accurate and have a wonderfully strong action.they are outstanding value.great guns. the 7.62 x 39 is a great gun.takes a suppressor and the ammo's cheap.
I had my barrel cut down to 18 inches, can't remember what the standard length was ? 22 or 24 inches I guess.
Stock part is 20 inches.
If you use a scope it will stick out behind the back part of the barrel and add length. Skinner sights on mine.
I was goin to put up photo of Rossi in pack form but discovered my phone no longer has a sd card :what::(
Must have come out when it blew to bits on the workshop floor this morning.
VC, this the pic ya looking for ?

I have a Rossi in 223 supressed and it is a pleasure to shoot, although I would prefer a Baikal for the fact it doesn't have the hammer hanging out the back.
