They seemed kind of small to me at least the ones I seen but that might make them a good pack gun. Jim
Said I never had much use for one, never said I didn't know how to use it.

My daughter has a Rossi combo in 22 LR/20 gauge.  It works fine, and the 22 barrel is very accurate.

I have several Rossi's and love em all!  My wife has a "matched pair" with a .22lr bbl and a .410 bbl that has killed more squirrels and other varmints around the farm than any other gun.  I own a single shot .357mag that is one of the best shooting guns that I own!  It shoots just about everything I put into it flawlessly (and works great in the barn against lil birds with those .38/357mag shotshells).  I also recently got a rossi in 7.62x39mm that is turning out to be quite a little shooter as well.  I have had several NEF's/H&R's as well and I love their shotguns, however their handi-rifles leave a lot to be desired from my experiences.  I had one in .223 that used to open up once in a while when I fired it.  Had one in .30-30 that blew primers all the time...  After owning several of both, I choose the Rossi's.  Check out the Rossi forum for more opinions on these guns.

Rossi .223

Shot one in .223 yesterday. Belongs to a friend. Put three rounds of unknown reloads he bought at a gun show into a 1/2" at 50. That's MOA. I did notice that when I pushed the release, it swung open alot easier than I expected and gave me the impression that it was a little loose on the hinge pin.
Any law that makes self-defense illegal or impractical is an illegitimate law, and should not be obeyed, because such a law ultimately subjects people to the criminal element.
