I haven't been able to get my hands on a M92 or copy and I am curious regarding its dimensions.

Is there anyone out there who would be willing/able to take some measurements for me?

Kanuck,

I have a Rossi 92 Carbine, I'll measure it for you.
Just let me know.

Joe

Kanuck,

I sent you the measurements 11-01. Since I haven't heard back from you I'll post your questions, and my answers here.

The dimensions that I am looking for need not be precise. I would be happy to get approximate dimensions to 1/16" but if you have a dial caliper micrometer, .001" would be terrific. I am just looking for dimensions of the following:

Barrel Diameter in front of receiver (does the barrel taper?)
Receiver Thickness/Width at bolt face and lugs
Receiver Depth
Receiver Length
Bolt Width (visible from top of closed action) at bolt face and between lugs
Bolt Length (face to start of lugs)
Locking Lug Width
Locking Lug Thickness

Many thanks for the assistance!

James,

Here are your measurements.

Barrel Diameter in front of receiver (does the barrel taper?)
Barrel Dia: .973" tapering to .622" at the muzzel. 20" Round barrel
Receiver Thickness/Width at bolt face and lugs
Receiver width @ bolt face: 1.080". Receiver width @ lugs:
1.11", center of lugs.
Receiver Depth
Receiver depth: 1.90", measured top to bottom at front edge of loading port, with bolt open.
Receiver Length
Receiver Length: 4.927", measured from forward edge of receiver at forarm to rear edge of receiver at butstock, parallel to the top of the receiver, at the hammer screw level
Bolt Width (visible from top of closed action) at bolt face and between lugs
Bolt width @ bolt face: .508". Bolt width @ 1/2" back from bolt face, (just past the cutouts on the sides): .590". Bolt width between the lugs: .350".
Bolt Length (face to start of lugs)
Bolt length: 2.621", (Bolt face is recessed, could only measure from top of the front of the bolt body.)
Locking Lug Width
Locking lug width, (front to rear): .604".
Locking Lug Thickness
Locking lug thickness, (side to side): .210" at the bottom. (possibly a bit more at the top, could not get a positive measurement at the top, too many curves on the lugs.)

Hope this helps. If you need any more, or want me to measure it in a different way, just let me know.
