I have a Model '92 in 357 magnum and a Model '95 in 30-40. Both are NIB, and I'm not sure I'm ever going to shoot either one. Which would you keep? The '92 is chambered in a fun, practical round should I ever shoot it. The Model '95 is beautiful and has a certain "cool factor". Thanks.

Well, I thought about replacing the Model '92 with a '94 Trapper in 45 Colt. :)
Buy the trapper,I have the 94 trapper in 45C & 44mag they are fun and serious companions too
Keep the 95. I've got a B-92 in .357 and just love it but I'd still keep the Model 95 in 30/40.
Keep the 95; 30-40 is the right caliber for the 1895.

I agree.

It's a whole different Ballgame than a '92 Chambered in .357 Magnum.
I have to agree with the consensus to keep the 38-40 for the reason of a correct western caliber. Plus the 357 might sell easier if someone is buying it to shoot. Both nice guns in perfect condition and I expected no less in Hopalong's collection.
I can offer up a winchester trapper in 30/30 :)

I would sell the 357 ,which will sell easily, and to replace it ,get a Rossi 92 trapper with large loop barrel and 16 inch barrel. You will still walk away with $400-500 . I have a bunch of Winchesters ,and clones. The 92 in 45 Colt Win ,shoots no better than my Rossi 92 ,or a Uberti 73 . The slickest of the bunch is a Browning 92 in 357. The 92 Trapper I picked up used ,has a slick action, gold bead front sight. and yup I can spin cock it. The 357 is practical , cowboy tactical, fun to shoot and cheap to feed. Picked it up for $400 as new, but better. Can keep the bigboy for a collectible and come out ahead. That's my story and I'm stickin to it
When in doubt, keep them both.
