Overview

The Rossi R351 38 Special used trade-in revolver is a classic small-frame revolver built for simplicity and reliability. Rossi has been producing firearms in Brazil for decades, and the R351 is a staple of their revolver lineup. This particular model is a used trade-in, meaning it has seen some use, but our gunsmiths have given it a thorough function check. The revolver features a 2-inch barrel, a fixed front sight, and a traditional six-round cylinder capacity (note: some variants are five-shot, so check the cylinder on your specific piece). The finish shows honest wear from holster time and handling, but the mechanicals are tight. For a shooter who values function over cosmetics, this is an excellent entry point into the world of wheel guns.
