Whats it worth?

I have the option to purchase a Roy Rogers tribute Winchester 1892 saddle ring carbine made by Miroku put out by America Remembers in .45 Colt. It is immaculate and comes with a beautiful display case. With certificate that says 300 were made. Yea or nay. Are Mirokus enny good? It does say Winchester on the barrel with proofs. He also has a Chuck Norris .45 by Uberti to go with it. BTW, I am more of a shooter than a collector. Thanks in advance for your opinion. Ed, Life member VFW & NRA

    the Miroku's are probably better made than the original Winchesters (oh the hypocrisy), the Uberti's are just about as good as the originals. For 'shooters' you can't go wrong.

    Had many Mirokus and top notch on all. They are imo as good as any German made shotgun , rifle -Roy Roger’s one sounds like a nice rifle but market is a limited one imo imo imo

    I have no idea on the value of a Roy Rogers 1892 but I can say that Miroku produces very nice firearms. I have probably six made Miroku firearms, both Browning and Winchester, and Mike is correct the quality is as good or better than the originals.
