A Rossi M92 (.45 LC) to a Henry Big Boy in .357.

The Henry is smoother and a good bit bigger. I find the Rossi is a little to small for me to be comfortable. The Henry is 250.00 more money and I suppose it is worth it.

I also have a Vaquero as well as a Cattleman and a Smokewagon all in 5.5. The Vaquero is a little smoother than the Ubertis but not by much. If some one handed me both revolvers and told me the Uberti's cost as much as the Ruger's I would believe them.

The Ruger is a transfer bar revolver. It also does not have a half cock position. The cylinder rotates when the loading gate is open.
