I have four 357 lever guns, a pre safety Marlin, a stainless Rossi trapper, and two Browning B92's.

The Marlin is simpler, easier to disassemble for cleaning, and the only way to go if there is any chance you'll be mounting an optic.

The 92 clones are lighter, more authentic, and Rossi is the only one of the three that is readily available. If you can find one, the Browning B92 is probably the best pistol caliber levergun ever made.

I prefer the 92 in the trapper version, I also have a stainless Rossi trapper in 44 magnum. Both of these are light, fast and accurate. Both have made a trip to Steve Young for an action job and are smooth as butter.
